Colder Weather Pattern

The wintry precip threat is long gone and now it’s just the cold air we have to deal with for a few days. Morning temps will start out in the mid to upper 20s through Thursday morning. Later this week a nice little warming trend kicks in and we’re looking at 70 degree warmth by early next week. High pressure…

Rain & Snow Mix Ahead

Sixty degree warmth today but by late tomorrow afternoon we’re roughly thirty degrees colder. An Arctic front is heading south tonight. It’s bringing much colder air and moisture along with it. It will start out as rain in west Alabama and move eastward. As the colder air mixes in the rain will transition to snow. Accumulating snow ( around 1…

Clear & Colder !

High pressure has returned and so has a new surge of colder air. The skies remain clear with the dry air in place. The relaxing wind and the clear sky will allow temps to plunge into the lower 30s overnight. It’s looking sunny but cool for your Friday. After the cold start we should see lower 50s for afternoon high…

Rain Ends Late Then Turning Colder

A strong cold front will move through the state tonight. Moderate to heavy rain advances through here ahead of the frontal boundary. We expect rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches and maybe a bit more in spots. The rain moves out later tonight and a surge of colder air spills into the state. Northwest winds of 10-15 mph will…

A Rainy Wednesday Ahead

We’re heading into another rain event and it’s looking like a good soaking. Rainfall potential of 1 to 2 inches is possible Wednesday. We don’t see anything going severe but a rumble of thunder is not out of the question. The clouds and rain clear out and a new surge of cold air spills into the state Thursday. Daytime highs…

High pressure is overhead now but it will be moving eastward Tuesday. This opens up southeast winds and moisture to return. It’s uneventful with mostly sunny skies and temps in the mid 50s Tuesday. The…

Windy & Much Colder !

A much colder air mass has arrived in the deep south. It’s coming in on gusty northwest winds of 15 to 25 mph. We could have stronger gust 30 to 40 mph through early afternoon. Skies will gradually give way to some sunshine but don’t expect temps to warm any today. Temps only manage 40s for highs but with the strong…

Stormy Saturday And Cold Sunday

Big changes are in store for us over the weekend! Storms will move through Saturday and then much colder air spills into the area Sunday. A strong cold front works its way into the state on Saturday. This boundary will bring a line of rain and storms with it. Some of the storms could be strong and possibly severe. The…

Round one of precipitation is moving through the area now but there’s another round coming through on Saturday. We expect occasional showers to pass through tonight into early Friday. There’s nothing heavy and rainfall amounts will be light. Most of your Friday will be fairly mild with temps managing mid to upper 60s for highs. Our next system is stronger…

Clouds & Showers Return For Thursday

Hope you got to enjoy the sunshine and blue sky today because clouds and rain move back into the area Thursday. It’s the first of two rain makers that will move through here over the next few days. In the mean time, high pressure keeps the sky mostly clear and temps drop into the mid 30s for lows overnight. A…
