A Cloudy And Wet Friday
We’re looking at some significant changes to our weather Friday through the upcoming weekend. Our first decent chance for rain will come into play Friday and then a 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 cloudy sky with showers likely overnight. Temps will fall into the lower 70s for overnight lows. South of us is a stalled frontal boundary along the northern gulf. A disturbance riding along the boundary will help generate rain activity across our area Friday. The rainfall will be heavier across central and 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. Temps will be impacted by the clouds/rain and we’re only expecting upper 70s to lower 80s for highs 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.
