Atlanta forecast: Veterans Day drizzly and breezy when not raining
ATLANTA - Veterans Day weekend will see clouds, showers and cooler temperatures, not to mention it being a bit breezy.
The rainfall, which is badly needed across north Georgia, will not be constant, but rather, on-again, off-again. When it’s not raining, expect drizzly and misty conditions. The steadiest rainfall will move through Saturday night into Sunday morning.

Rain totals will be near a half inch in most places, but some places could see up to an inch. It’s not the drought-buster rain that is needed, but helpful, nonetheless. This rain breaks a three-week fast of showers with the trace measured on Oct. 20
The same front which is pulling in all this moisture is also helping to break the near-record-breaking highs this week. It will start to feel more like fall again on Saturday morning.
Lows overnight will be in the mid- to upper 40s, with Sunday being cooler.
The highs will be in the mid-50s.
Temperatures will warm up to the low to mid-60s on Monday as the rain moves out.
