These early season races during the month of February and March can be a real crapshoot across the southeastern United States. Sometimes they can be dry and others can be wet and cool. For the start of the 2017 NASCAR, despite The Clash at Daytona, the weather has been picture perfect and it continues for the Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 Monster Energy Cup race at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
Atlanta NASCAR weather: Another picture perfect race day
For the second weekend in a row, Mother Nature is providing NASCAR fans with picture perfect weather
Sunshine and a few clouds are likely for Sunday afternoon as afternoon temperatures warm into the low to middle 60s. Winds will be out of the south between 5 to maybe even 15 mph at times. Another great looking race day for NASCAR. Here’s hoping this trend continues when NASCAR begins to head west in the coming weeks.
