Earlier this week we took a late afternoon break at East Cobb Park, which in the summer you know what that means: A very high chance of a thunderstorm breaking out.
And there was no doubt about that a few minutes upon arriving, when the skies opened up, and everyone there was quickly drenched.
The rain didn’t last long, and it felt great, after some stuffy conditions during the week.
But the late summer heat is back, and will be with us for most of next week, as sun, humidity and high temperatures are in the forecast.
High temperatures will be in the high 80s to low 90s through Thursday, according to the National Weather Service, with lows in the low 70s.
The conditions will also be dry, with a slight chance of thunderstorms. But the chances of more rain will increase toward the latter part of next week, with a 30 percent chance on Thursday and a 50 percent chance on Friday and Saturday.
Highs will be in the low to mid 80s during that stretch, and by next weekend, the rain is expected to clear, with highs again in the low to mid 80s.
