Indian summer weather returns to East Cobb as October closes

Daylight savings time ends

Indian summer-like weather has returned to the Cobb area for the latter part of October, and for the final two weeks of Daylight Saving Time.

We’ve gone from having a freeze advisory during the week to highs in the low 70s on Saturday.

Starting today, plenty of sunshine is expected throughout the coming week and temperatures will be reaching into the 70s and beyond.

The extended forecast of the National Weather Service in Atlanta is projecting highs in the mid-to-high 70s for at least the next week.

And the cooler temperatures we’ve been experiencing at night in recent days also will be going up, with overnight lows ranging from the high 40s to the mid 50s.

Winds also are expected be low during this period, and humidity levels also have been tapering off.

As we head into Standard Time, sunsets will gradually be getting earlier.

In the last week or so official sunsets have been at around 7:30 p.m. or so. They’re projected to be around 7 p.m. from now on, until Standard Time returns on Nov. 3.

Sunrise times are roughly between 7:30-8 a.m.
