A Few Showers Early Tomorrow
FINE VETERANS DAY: Wonderful day for the Veterans Day parades across Alabama this afternoon; the sky is mostly sunny with temperatures in the 60s.
TO THE NORTH AND WEST: Very active weather continues across parts of Missouri and Iowa, ahead of a deepening surface low moving through the Great Plains.
The low will move to the Great Lakes tomorrow, and will drag a cold front through Alabama early tomorrow. A band of showers will pass through during the pre-dawn hours, most likely between 1:00 and 6:00 a.m. There is no risk of severe weather, I don’t expect any thunder, and rain amounts will be light, under 1/4 inch.
The sky will become mostly sunny tomorrow with a high in the upper 60s.
FRIDAY AND THE WEEKEND: Sunny days, clear cold nights on these three days. We project lows between 30 and 34 degrees for most communities across North/Central Alabama early Saturday and Sunday morning with frost likely, and a freeze for colder spots. Some valley locations will reach the 20s. Afternoon highs will be in the upper 50s and low 60s.
NEXT WEEK: The weather stays dry Monday, but rain and storms are likely Tuesday and Wednesday with a dynamic storm system approaching from the west. Instability values look very low, which will limit any severe weather threat, but flooding is a possibility with rain amounts in the 2-3 inch range on these two days. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.
FOOTBALL WEATHER: Clear and cold for the Friday night high school playoff games; temperatures will fall into the 40s.
Auburn hosts Georgia Saturday at Jordan Hare Stadium (11:00a CT kickoff)… the sky will be sunny with temperatures rising from near 54 at kickoff to 58 by the final whistle.
Alabama takes on Mississippi State over in Starkville at Davis Wade Stadium (2:30p CT kickoff)… the expect a sun filled sky. About 62 degrees at kickoff, falling into the low 50s by the fourth quarter.
AT THE BEACH: A small risk of a shower tomorrow, otherwise the weather is looking dry on the coast from Gulf Shores east to Panama City Beach through the weekend… See the complete Gulf Coast 7 Day Planner here. The Gulf Coast Beach Forecast is presented by Gulf Shores Plantation by Mandoki Hospitality Vacation Rentals. Escape to Gulf Shores Plantation where memories last a lifetime.
