There is no precise way to know the exact day it will next snow in Atlanta more than about a week or so in advance.

Near term forecast

Public 7–10 day outlooks for Atlanta currently show no measurable snow, with temperatures well above freezing and snow levels far higher than the city’s elevation. This means snow is very unlikely in the immediate future.

Typical snow timing

Atlanta’s rare snow events usually occur in the coldest months, mainly from late December through February, when cold air and moisture occasionally line up. Even then, many winters pass with little or no accumulating snow in the city itself.

Seasonal outlook

Seasonal forecasts this winter for the South highlight generally warmer-than- normal conditions, but still allow for one or more brief Arctic outbreaks that could bring snow or ice to parts of Georgia. These outlooks only describe risk windows and cannot specify exact snow days for Atlanta.

How to check for your exact dates

To know if it will snow on specific upcoming days, check:

  • The local National Weather Service Atlanta/Peachtree City forecast for any mention of snow, wintry mix, or winter storm products.
  • A detailed “WinterCast” or winter-weather page from a major weather provider that shows daily snow chance and expected accumulation.

If you share the exact dates you care about, the best anyone can do is look at those day-by-day forecasts within about 5–7 days of the time.
