What December feels like
December here is mostly rain, and the odd flurry sends everybody to the windows. The Botanical Garden lights and the tree at Lenox pull crowds, and driving anywhere near Buckhead becomes a test of character.
Rain arrives about 7 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans. about 9 nights dip below freezing.
