One More Night Near Freezing; Then Warmer Temps And Storms This Weekend

Happy Pi Day! Today (and especially tonight) may be best spent indoors eating pie or pizza. This afternoon, high temperatures peak only in the upper 50s, and it will be breezy at times with a northwest wind between 7 and 14 mph. Tonight will be clear and cold, and with winds becoming calm, lows will fall into the low 30s…

Rain Ends Tonight; A Cool And Windy Monday Ahead

The heaviest rain is now heading out of southeast Alabama, and the overall trend will be towards drier and cooler weather by Monday morning. Additional scattered showers are possible tonight as a cold front sweeps through central and south Alabama. That results in gusty winds and temperatures in the 40s for the morning commute. The morning starts cloudy, but the…

Rain And Storms Arrive Late Tonight

More clouds rolled in this afternoon, and here and there we’ve experienced brief isolated showers. Our chance for rain increases late this evening with a few showers and maybe some storms encroaching into our northern counties from the north. However, the better chance for rain arrives after midnight through early Sunday morning as a complex of rain and storms swings…

A Dry, Sunny, and Warmer Friday; Storms Ahead This Weekend

Temperatures will warm further than the last couple days, and by mid afternoon most spots should at least be in the low to mid 60s. Temperatures also remain milder tonight, with lows in the lower to mid 40s. Rain and storms arrive this weekend. Saturday will start dry and with some sun, but clouds gradual increase in coverage during the…

A Light Freeze Tonight; Rain and Storms This Weekend

First and foremost, a freeze warning is in effect from 12AM Friday to 8AM Friday morning. A light freeze is expected tonight, with temperatures dropping to just below freezing for much of central and south Alabama before sunrise Friday. You’ll want to bring any cold sensitive plants and pets inside. For the rest of Thursday, sunshine and cool, breezy weather…

Sunny & Cool For A Few Days, with Frost Possible Overnight

Cooler air arrived last night and it can certainly be felt today. As of 11AM, temperatures are only in the mid 40s to low 50s. Highs today remain below 60 degrees, and winds remain breezy out of the northwest at 10 to 15 mph. A cold night is ahead, with overnight lows falling into the low to mid 30s by…

Clouds And Some Rain To Start Off The Week

Hope you’ve had an enjoyable weekend, it certainly was hard to ask for much more from an early March Saturday and Sunday. Tonight, clouds return and will overspread central and south Alabama by sunrise Monday morning. While some showers will try to make their way into our area, its unlikely that they’ll be able to overcome the rather dry air…

Picture Perfect Sunday Afternoon Still To Come

Couldn’t have asked for a better early March afternoon than today, and we’ve got another day of the super-pleasant weather still to come. Get ready for another cold night though- we’ll see lows in the mid and upper 30s just prior to sunrise Sunday morning. Fortunately, the very dry airmass in place will warm efficiently Sunday- in other words, temperatures…

A Sunny And Dry Weekend

A chilly start to Friday morning, but temperatures rebound into the mid and upper 60s this afternoon. Tonight will be cold, cooler than last night, with lows dropping into the upper 30s. A north wind at 5-10 mph will make it feel even chillier tonight. Temperatures rebound nicely for Saturday afternoon, with highs near 70 degrees. Saturday will be sunny…

Rain Thursday Afternoon; A Dry Weekend Ahead

Rain is pushing into the area late this morning. The rain is riding along a cold front that will push through the area by early this evening. Much of the rainfall will actually occur just behind the front, and that will be ending from northwest to southeast during the afternoon across the northwest and evening across the southeast. The sky…
