Augusta National Prepares for Unpredictable Weather During Masters Week

As the Masters tournament kicks off in Augusta, Georgia, attendees are advised to prepare for variable weather conditions. According to the official Masters website, temperatures in April can range from highs of 80°F (27°C) to lows of 50°F (10°C).

The unpredictable weather means that a cardigan or light sweater is a smart addition to any outfit, and a windbreaker is suggested as a trendy option for spring.
