A Few Strong Storms This Afternoon; Dry Close To The Week

It’s going to be a tale of two halves weather-wise this afternoon in Alabama. Areas east of I-65 have the chance to see scattered showers and storms, while areas west…

Mainly Dry For The Rest Of The Week

A cold front that swept through the area last night cleared the sky and brought in some drier air for much of the area. However, there is still a very small chance for an isolated shower or two to develop in east Alabama this afternoon.

The area is dry this morning but there are some clouds streaming through the southern half of the state. A cold front is also entering northwest Alabama.
