Another Mild and Sunny Day

Dry air is still in place over the area, allowing for the air temperatures to efficiently cool during the night and warm during the day. That trend will continue through Friday. Today will be sunny and mild, with high temperatures ranging from the lower to mid 60s. Tonight will be clear and cold, with low temperatures dropping to the upper…

Mostly Sunny and Dry

We’re off to another pleasant day by January standards. The sky is mostly sunny save for extreme south Alabama, where clouds continue to stream in from the southwest. Expect more of the same through this afternoon, with temperatures warming into the mid-50s. Cold and clear Wednesday night, lows drop to near 30 degrees. Thursday will be a mostly sunny day…

Mild Tonight; A Few Strong Storms Monday

What a wonderful Sunday afternoon it was. Highs today reached the lower 70s with plenty of sun to go around. Tonight will be mild compared to our cold nights of January thus far. Low temperatures will be within a couple degrees of 50 under a partly cloudy sky. We’re back to an active weather day on Monday. The morning will…

A Milder Weather Pattern (Finally!)

Watch Out For Storms on Monday Though

Its been an absolutely wonderful start to the weekend. High temperatures today reached the lower 60s for all of central and south Alabama. Tonight won’t be as cold in comparison to nights in the teens and twenties we have seemingly become accustomed to during the cold outbreaks of the last few weeks.. Lows drop to around 40 degrees under a…

Warming Back Up Today

After a brutally cold morning with low temperatures well into the teens, we’re finally going to see some slightly warmer temperatures this afternoon. With highs ranging from the lower to mid 40s, snow and ice will be able to melt even in shaded areas. Road conditions will improve this afternoon, but there could still be some additional icy spots Friday…

Another Cold Night; Snow This Week?

The sunshine helped us out this afternoon, bumping temperatures into the mid forties and even some low 50s. An area of cloudcover is currently producing some snow flurries across Mississippi, and those will push east into Alabama tonight. The air at the surface is so dry here though, that its unlikely any flurries would be able to reach the surface…

Very Cold Saturday Night

It took a while for the clouds to clear this afternoon, and that held high temperatures in the 30s for most. Its going to be a very cold night with lows temperatures in the low 20s. Winds won’t be as brisk tonight, but wind chill temps could still drop into the teens at times. Sunday should be a little warmer,…

Brutally Cold Nights Ahead

Its a complete weather-180 from Thursday. Friday afternoon temperatures are trending some 20-30 degrees cooler than Thursday afternoon temperatures. The cold front has exited east Alabama, and now cold air will continue to filter into the state through tonight. Low temperatures range from 25 to 30 degrees, and it will remain rather breezy tonight. Expect wind chills in the upper…

Winter Returns This Weekend

So far, so good on this Thursday. Its another warm and spring-like day with temperatures in the low 70s for most spots. A fairly strong southeast wind is helping us out temperature-wise, and also pumping in some moisture that will be the fuel for slightly more widespread showers later on tonight. The overnight will be mild, with temperatures hovering in…

Warmer, Showery Through Thursday

Wednesday afternoon will be another warm one. However, its unlikely we see a nice break of sunshine like on Tuesday afternoon. A few passing showers are possible today and tonight. High temps reach the upper 60s Wednesday, and lows will be mild in the upper 50s and low 60s. More showers are possible throughout Thursday. It will be downright spring-like…
