ATLANTA (AP) - Forecasters say the weekend's mild weather is giving way to cooler temperatures across Georgia.

Forecasters have issued a flood watch for northwest Georgia. They say a slow-moving cold front will bring widespread showers and periods of heavy rain.

The weather service says rainfall amounts of 2 or 3 inches will be common, and some areas could receive as much as 4 inches of rain by Wednesday morning.
