Christmas weather in East Cobb: The sun returns, but bundle up

Christmas weather in East Cobb

Two weeks ago, East Cobb and most of North Georgia was digging out of several inches of snow.

Two days before Christmas, the temperatures were nearly 70 degrees, and Christmas Eve day weather will be mild, with highs in the 50s.

But if you’re heading out to Christmas Eve services or other activities tonight, dress warm, and expect to stay bundled up most of the week, heading into the new year.

In addition to getting much colder, the weather also will be windy for the next few days.

After several days of rain and dreary skies to go with those warm temperatures, the skies will be clearing up. Sunday’s forecast will be mostly cloudy, with a high around 53, according to the National Weather Service.

By mid evening, temperatures will drip into the 40s, and may fall below freezing overnight, with some lows into the high 20s. Winds could get as high as 30 mph throughout the day on Sunday.

The Christmas Day forecast calls for sunny skies, but highs may not reach into the 40s all day, and winds as high as 20 mph.

On Tuesday, it will start to warm with sun, and highs in the high 40s, and the same goes for Wednesday, when rainy weather could return.

By Thursday, we may be in for a chance of freezing rain, with precipitation continuing and highs reaching into the high 30s.

Sunny skies will return by Saturday, but high temperatures aren’t likely to exceed the low 40s.
