It’s very hard to spot any clouds in Central Alabama as we have made it to the midday hour on Wednesday, but if you squint your eyes really hard, there are a couple of very small clouds in the central parts of the area.
STILL DRY TODAY: Our weather stays dry today; the sky will be partly to mostly sunny with a high between 65 and 68 degrees. Clouds will move in tonight, and we will mention the chance of a few sprinkles, or patches of light rain, after midnight over the northern third of the state. Rain amounts, if any, should be light and spotty.

DRY/COOL AFTERNOON: With a good supply of sunshine, temperatures are generally in the 58-62 degree range across the northern half of Alabama this afternoon. The air is very dry, and tonight will be clear and cold again. A freeze warning is in effect for a decent part of North Alabama once again, for areas generally north of a line from Winfield to Oneonta to Gadsden to Weiss Lake.
Prepare for below freezing temperatures again tonight in the warning area.
We have very little in the way of clouds in the sky across Central Alabama at midday, as sunshine and blue skies are the main story at 12:40 pm.
DRY: Look for a sunny sky across Alabama today… REST OF THE WEEK: Tomorrow morning will be cold again with a low in the 30s; the day will be partly to mostly sunny with a high in the mid 60s. Clouds increase tomorrow night, and a few sprinkles are possible over the northwest part of the state, but the air will be pretty dry and most communities won’t see any rain at all.
