We just hit 83 degrees in Atlanta—a brand new record high for the day! While the record-breaking warmth is sticking around, you’ll need to dodge some "hit and miss" summer-like thunderstorms as we head into the weekend. Don't forget to spring forward an hour as we transition to Daylight Saving Time.

Stray storms could pop up throughout the weekend. 

Storm chances increase this weekend. 

Spring has arrived early with record-breaking heat hitting the 80s, but don't get too comfortable just yet. We are tracking a line of "rambunctious" thunderstorms set to move in Saturday night, followed by a mix of clouds and rain to start the new week.

Record-breaking temperatures in the 80s will give way to a level one severe weather threat this Saturday night, bringing risks of 60 mph winds and hail.

Georgia is set to ring the bell on new record highs this week as temperatures soar well above the average of 63 degrees. While the sunshine dominates, we are tracking thick morning fog and a slight chance of strong thunderstorms rolling in after sunset this Saturday.
