Weather
We were told to line up and wait on Runway 8R and were told to be ready to go so that they could get more departures out. We got into position and then were cleared for takeoff. The aircraft ahead of us had just rotated and was airborne. We then began our takeoff. The F/O (First Officer) called 80 knots and after that call we saw and heard the 'Windshear Ahead Warning.' I rejected the takeoff and simultaneously told the F/O that we were rejecting. We informed Tower immediately of our rejection on the runway. We then cleared off to the right and stopped on Taxiway Delta. I informed the passengers that we had rejected the takeoff due to a Windshear Warning and that the aircraft was under control. We ran the brake cooling numbers to determine if we could return to the gate or not. We could. I contacted the Chief Pilot and explained the situation. After taking a breath; we reviewed our procedures to see if we missed anything. I informed the passengers that we would be returning to the gate. At the gate; I talked to the Chief Pilot and Maintenance. Additionally; I went to the cabin and spoke to the passengers face to face and explained what happened. After that; we were replaced and deadheaded back to ZZZ.
