Warming Trend Underway

Our streak of beautiful fall days will continue on into the start of our weekend. High pressure will maintain sunny and dry conditions over the area. Temps start out rather cool but warm nicely during the afternoon hours. We will see lower to mid 80s through Sunday. Another cold front heads our way for Monday. This boundary will help bring…

Chilly Overnight !

Finally..it’s starting to feel more like fall around here. High pressure is helping provide the clear sky and northerly winds usher in the cool/dry air. The clear sky and lighter wind will be the perfect setup up for temps to drop into the upper 40s in spots. This will be the coolest air so far this fall. You’ll probably need…

Feels Like Fall !

A strong cold front has made its way through the deep south. Some of the coolest air so far this fall is moving our way. We have a couple of mornings in the 40s but with lots of sunshine temps recover into the 70s for highs. Dry air will establish itself and this will keep us rain free all week….

Warm Weekend But Cooler Next Week!

Summer-like temps will linger through the weekend but big changes are on the way for early next week. High pressure will keep it warm and mostly sunny both Saturday and Sunday. Temps will top out in the mid to upper 80s both days. An increase in moisture comes our way Sunday so will can’t rule out a few showers. A…

Drier But Still Hot

Drier air has moved into the region and this should make mornings feel comfortable the next couple of days. Temps will start out in the lower 60s but still warm into the mid to upper 80s during the afternoon. Some moisture creeps into the area and we can’t rule out a few showers Friday afternoon. Looks like little change in…

Drier Air Returns

A frontal boundary is making its way through our area tonight. Scattered showers are possible along and well ahead of this boundary. The hot and muggy conditions we’ve had lately will give way to dry and milder conditions the next few days. Mornings will be comfortable but afternoons still quite warm. Highs will continue to reach the mid to upper…

Front Approaching

A rather warm and muggy air mass has a grip on our weather. This is all ahead of a frontal boundary and even though the front will move through here, we don’t expect a drop in daytime high temps. That means the 80s will be sticking around until further notice. We can’t rule out a few showers or t-storms as…

Warm & Muggy

Nate is long gone but moisture lingers over the area and this will lead to rain activity through midweek. You can expect scattered showers and t-storms to work through here at times. A frontal boundary will sweep the rain out of here by Wednesday afternoon. This puts us back into a sunny and dry weather pattern for the latter half…

T.S. Nate Moving Over Alabama

T.D. Nate continues to weaken as it moves rapidly northeastward through central Alabama. Currently winds are 35 mph and this will be confined to a small area around the center of circulation.  You can expect southeast winds of 15 to 25 mph and gusty.  The tornado threat has shifted into east Alabama and even here the threat has lessened. Heaviest…

Hurricane Nate Getting Closer

Category 1 Hurricane Nate continues to move rapidly toward the southeast gulf coast.  The storm could strengthen a bit more into a Cat 2 before landfall somewhere along the LA,MS, or AL coast later tonight. Most of today you can expect cloudy skies with occasional showers passing through the area.  Conditions will start deteriorating during the late evening hours as…
