Georgia Weather Forecast: A Freeze, Then Warmer This Weekend

ATLANTA, GA — Metro Atlanta is in for at least one more freezing night this weekend. And, while we could also get some rain, things may be warming up every so slightly in the coming days.

Temperatures are expected to dip down to 31 Friday night, after a high Friday of only 47. But things will warm up ever-so-slightly after that, with highs of 54 and 57 on Saturday and Sunday.

Here's the nice part — Sunday night, the low is only forecast to get down to 51 degrees and, on Monday, we could see a high back up in the 60s.
