Weekend Weather in Coweta: Mostly Cloudy, Warm

From Staff Reports
Even though the National Weather Service in Peachtree City lists a rain chance each day this weekend, it shouldn’t be considered a washout.
The forecast calls for mostly cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid-70s to near 80 degrees. There is a 60 percent rain chance today, 40 percent chance on Saturday and 30 percent on Sunday.
The good news with the rain chances are washing away the extremely high pollen counts. This morning, Atlanta Allergy & Asthma Center posted a 6,262 pollen count, the highest since 2013.
