I thought that the weather at the Championships in 2005 was really warm (except Saturday morning); I was wearing a tee shirt and shorts the whole time. I'm pretty sure the temperatures were in the upper sixties and lower seventies for all three days.

Then again, being from New England I consider anything over 55-60 F warm.
Sunday, April 24, 2005 (the day after last year's Championship), the low was 34 F in Atlanta. It was a record low for that date since record-keeping began in 1878. I got this information from the
NOAA site. The average low for April was 50.3 F. And yes, I heard the Atlanta natives complaining about the cold. But it WAS "fire weather" a few days before that!

My point is, check the weather before you go, and come prepared.
