Several Sunny Days Ahead
RADAR CHECK: At midday most of the rain is over Southeast Alabama, and the sky has cleared nicely over the northwest part of the state…
The clearing will continue to push southward, and tonight will be clear and cold with a low in the 28-32 degree range early tomorrow for most places.
Tomorrow and Friday will feature sunny pleasant days and clear cold nights; the high both days will be in the mid 50s.
MILD WEEKEND: Saturday looks really nice; sunshine in full supply along with a high in the mid 60s. And, the latest data suggests we stay dry and mild Sunday, with a mix of sun and clouds along with a high in the 66-69 degree range. A few showers could show up Sunday night and Monday with a weak front drifting into Alabama from the north.
SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL NEXT WEEK: The new global model runs continue to show a dynamic weather system that will have the potential to bring strong to severe thunderstorms to the southern U.S. around Tuesday, or Tuesday night of next week. SPC already has this region in a risk of severe weather on their “Day 7” convective outlook…
You can’t be very specific when it comes to modes of severe weather and timing so far in advance, but just be aware of the potential. For Alabama at this time it looks like the main threat will come late Tuesday and Tuesday night.
This system will also spread very heavy snow in the cold sector from the Southwest U.S. up through the High Plains and into the Great Lakes. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.
Drier air returns Wednesday, and we should turn sharply colder late in the week.
