Weather: Labor Day Weekend lining up to be a wet one

From Staff Reports

It appears this Labor Day Weekend in Coweta County will be a wet one, according to the National Weather Service in Peachtree City.

Today will likely be the best of the four days with a high of 84 degrees under partly sunny skies but only a 40 percent rain chance. 

A stationary front is just south of Coweta County and will stick around through the holiday weekend.  And because of the front, those rain probabilities rise on Saturday to 60 percent, then 70 percent on Sunday and Labor Day. The good news is high temperatures will remain in the low 80s thanks to mostly cloudy skies. 

Overnight lows will be near 70.
