Metro Atlanta forecast brings sprinkles before a wetter Wednesday  CBS News

High temperatures are forecast in the low to mid-70s on Monday and Tuesday. For each of those days, the precipitation outlook is limited to a few sprinkles. The forecast places those temperatures and the chance of sprinkles in the same early-week period, covering Monday and Tuesday rather than identifying a widespread rain event. The expected highs are described as being in the low-to-mid-70s range, while the expected precipitation is described as a few sprinkles for metro Atlanta during those two days. Wednesday’s rain potential is broader, with more widespread rainfall possible than in the preceding two-day outlook.

Showers are expected to begin early Wednesday and to continue on and off throughout the day. The forecast does not limit Wednesday’s precipitation to the few sprinkles cited for Monday and Tuesday; instead, it indicates a possibility of more widespread rain. Rain and showers may recur at intervals from early in the day through the remainder of Wednesday, according to the forecast for metro Atlanta. This marks the forecast’s shift from limited sprinkles to a day of possible, more broadly distributed rainfall.
