Ok. Fact 1 is already distorted. What Atlanta are you visiting in the summer?.... It is insanely hot and humid in the summer. I don't know one single person from Atlanta or a visitor who would tell you that we have "mild" summers.

How could you fail to mention that Piedmont Park was designed by the same guy who designed NYC's Central Park: Frederick Law Olmstead and his brother.

I love Atlanta, we moved out of Florida 15 years ago and it was the best decision EVER. Atlanta isn’t anywhere near as hot and humid as Florida in the summer. I fly a lot and I love the Hartsfield Jackson, International Airport. You can literally get almost anywhere in the east to the Midwest in 2 1/2 to 3 hours.. Atlanta really does have it all!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

Don't visit between June and September. It's a sauna with mosquitoes and no breeze.<br>Early Spring and Fall is beautiful.<br>Winter can be rainy and cold, or cool and crisp.<br>But during summer? Visit the Panama Canal. It's cooler<br><br>Atlanta hits the 90's sometimes for weeks.
