Because we have had 30 days straight of 90 plus degree days, and 9 days,(including today!) in August of 100 degree temps!

Well there are a few reasons why Atlanta is called "Hotlanta"...The obvious reason is because its hot as the living devil in the summer months here!! The temperature has been from 100-103 over the last few days and with the extra added humidity it makes it feel like 105-110. There are really only 2 solid months of winter (January and February) weather then its back to hot weather.
The second reason is a lot of men say Atlanta has the "hottest" or sexiest women in the South.

I always thought it was because it is hot & humid, sounds catchy to call it Hotlanta.....
or it might be called hotlanta because it is the place to be....

Hello; It's reffered to as hatlanta, but the 'a' is a longer drawn out 'a'. and the 'h' is a southern drawl, that's added due to accent... which has evolved today, to become Hotlanta... who can say; maybe some idiot thought it was Hotlanta, and it stuck recently... of course, it is hot there in the summer! I've been there a few times!

cuz it's a city with lots of cool stuff to do AND it's darn hot & humid during the summer months... but I always heard it was mostly because it's a happening place

The heat and humidity in the summer. Also because Atlanta has a robust nightlife scene
