Where to celebrate 404 Day in Atlanta: Live music, parades and more

April 14, 2022 Atlanta: Drummer Kermit Walker played drums along the BeltLine at the Historic Fourth Ward Skatepark located at 830 Willoughby Way NE in Atlanta on Thursday April 14, 2022. Kermit has been playing for 48-years and enjoys a hard bop style though he changes to more of a funk beat for the BeltLine goers. A clearing sky will Òbring us full sunshineÓ on Friday, Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Eboni Deon said, when the city is expected to reach a high of 77 degrees. There is no rain in the forecast Friday, but Easter weekend wonÕt be so fortunate. ÒAs we head into the weekend, weÕre watching out for the possibility of rain and storms, especially Saturday, and then going into Sunday some scattered activity could be possible,Ó Deon said. Rain chances drop from 60% Saturday to 30% Sunday, according to the latest forecast. It should be comfortable for egg hunts and family celebrations Sunday with a projected high of 73 degrees.
