CHILLY MAY MORNING: Next time we see numbers like these will most likely come in October. Check out these temperatures at daybreak…

Cullman 41

SPECTACULAR SPRING WEATHER: Expect sunny days and clear nights through the weekend with a warming trend. We rise into the mid 70s today, low 80s tomorrow, and mid 80 Sunday. Makes for an easy forecast.

NEXT WEEK: Warm, dry weather continues Monday… we will bring in the chance of showers and thunderstorms Tuesday, but the overall severe weather threat looks low for now with weakening dynamic support. Then, we will need to hang on to some risk of showers or storms on a daily basis through the rest of the week with a moist airmass holding in place. Highs will be generally in the 80s; see the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.

AT THE BEACH: Mostly sunny days, fair nights on the coast from Panama City Beach over to Gulf Shores through Tuesday… highs in the 70s along the immediate coast, with 80s inland. See a very detailed Gulf Coast forecast here.

WEATHER BRAINS: Don’t forget you can listen to our weekly 90 minute netcast anytime on the web, or on iTunes. This is the show all about weather featuring many familiar voices, including our meteorologists here at ABC 33/40.

CONNECT: You can find me on all of the major social networks…
