A storm rolls in to Kennesaw

Here comes a storm

 

 

Before you start your trip to the mountain, check the local weather forecast to be sure that you will have a dry time.

 

 

 

 

Though we are located north of Atlanta, we're still apt to the same hot summers and mild winters as our neighbors. The mountain top generally ranges 8-10 degrees cooler than at the base. In fall and winter, be prepared with a light weight jacket on hand. 

Known to residents of the area, it may rain on one side of the mountain and not on the other. What a great obstruction the mountain can be. 

After planning your activities check back to see what the weather will have in store for your day. As a reminder, if you don't like the weather, don't worry, it will change in about an hour.

Did You Know?
That National Park Law Enforcement Officers at Kennesaw Mountain can enforce both state and federal regulations. If caught violating a traffic offense on any road within or traveling through the park, a fine bears the same weight as if a county officer made the stop.
