A Cloudy & Wet Setup For Late Week
We’re looking at some significant changes to our weather starting Thursday and continuing into the upcoming weekend. Our first decent chance for rain will come into play Thursday and then a real cold front will push through the state Saturday. A nice taste of fall will be in the air Sunday and continue into early next week.
In the meantime, we’re expecting a mostly cloudy sky with showers possible tonight. Temps will fall into the lower 70s for overnight lows. South of us is a stalled frontal boundary along the northern gulf. Disturbances riding along the boundary will help generate rain activity across some of our area Thursday. The rainfall will be heavier across south Alabama and taper off the farther northward you go into the state. Rainfall potential will range between .50 to as much as 2 inches over a two day period. Temps will be impacted by the clouds/rain and we’re only expecting upper 70s to lower 80s for highs both Thursday and Friday. The rain will go into Friday evening and that may be an issue for some high school football games.
The upcoming weekend will look a lot different. A cold front will sweep through Saturday. We will carry a small chance for showers but most spots stay rain free. The air behind the front is much cooler and we could experience upper 50s to lower 60s for morning temps Sunday and again Monday. This should be a nice little taste of fall.
