Clouds And Cool Temperatures At Midday Across Central Alabama

| April 24, 2017 @ 12:52 pm

We continue to have a mostly cloudy sky and cooler temperatures across the state as the upper trough is slowly moving off to the east. Clouds continue to move around the back side of the upper low, and will hide the sunshine for much of the afternoon.

There could be a few sprinkles or light rain is showing up on radar over the northeastern parts of Talladega County, between Waldo and Munford. These may not be reaching the ground, but if it is, it would be very very light in nature.

Clouds will start to decrease during the late afternoon and into the evening hours, and will be mostly clear by the time the sun sets. Afternoon highs will be in the upper 60s to the lower 70s throughout Central Alabama, below average for this time of the year. Overnight lows will be in the lower to mid 50s, and there may a few spots of patchy fog developing after the midnight hour.

Temperatures across Central Alabama at half-past the noon hour are ranging from the upper 50s in the northern parts of the area to the upper 60s to the south. Montgomery is currently the warm spot at 68 degrees, while Anniston and Talladega are showing as the cool spots, both at 57 degrees.

Tomorrow will be a much brighter and warmer day across Central Alabama. Skies will start off mostly clear, but will become almost completely clear by the late morning hours. Afternoon highs will return to the lower to mid 80s across the area. Wednesday will be much of the same as well… mostly clear throughout the day with highs in the lower to mid 80s.
