Splendid Warm January Saturday

Once again I am having to do a double and triple look at the calendar as the weather is feeling more like early April compared to mid-January across the state. Near record warmth continues to highlight our forecast, and it is hard to believe that just a week ago, we were iced in and temperatures were unable to climb above freezing.

Not the case today as we are once again seeing a mix of sun and clouds this afternoon.

This afternoon, temperatures have once again been able to climb well into the 70s. Today’s record high for Birmingham is 78° set back in 1932, I don’t think we will reach that today, but we will just have to wait and see later today.

TONIGHT: Another very mild night as lows will only settle down into the lower to mid 50s for most us, which is actually where our average highs should be this time of year. With the continued very moist air mass in place, we are once again going to see areas of fog develop after midnight, and it could be quite dense in many locations. Keep that in mind first thing tomorrow morning.

FOR SUNDAY: More of the same as the spring-like weekend of weather continues. We are going to see more sun than clouds, with very mild and near record highs as mid to upper 70s are expected. Overall a superb Sunday of weather, especially for January. The record high for Birmingham tomorrow is also 78° set back in 1932.
