ATLANTA — Saturday will be a much cooler day in the metro Atlanta area, after a week of scorching temperatures.
Severe Weather Team 2 Meteorologist Eboni Deon says the cooler day is thanks to a passing front and a wedge setting up.
Saturday will be mostly cloudy with scattered rain and a few storms.
Deon said an isolated strong or severe storm can’t be ruled out, mainly south of Atlanta.
