Enjoy the weather today and tomorrow, it will likely be October before we see weather this nice again across Alabama. We are seeing tons of sunshine today, with a few more clouds the farther north you go as an upper-level low spins over the Ohio River Valley.
The radar across Alabama is fairly quiet right now, but that will change as we head through today. Expect periods of rain and storms the rest to today and tomorrow. Storms will be strong, and we could see several severe storms across Alabama.
Welcome to May and the new month is starting off more active as rain and storms have returned to Alabama and the forecast. We are seeing a mostly cloudy sky, and showers and storms will increase in coverage through the afternoon and tonight.
We are in the final hours of April, and the weather is very warm and pretty calm across Alabama. We are seeing a mix of sun and clouds, with only isolated afternoon/evening showers and storms.
Little change in the forecast today and tomorrow as we are seeing a mix of sun and clouds, with only isolated showers and storms, mainly during the afternoon and evening hours.
More sun than clouds through midweek with only isolated showers and storms, mainly during the afternoon and evening hours. Highs will be in the mid-80s which are several degrees above average for the end of April.
Showers and storms are once again on the radar today, and through the afternoon and evening, these will increase in coverage. However, they will remain scattered in nature and many locations will remain dry, while other locations will see brief, heavy downpours.
It remains warm and muggy across Alabama today and we continue to see more clouds than sunshine. Highs today are ranging from the upper 70s to low and mid 80s. As in recent days, the radar is active again across Alabama with scattered showers and storms.
Late April is feeling like early June across Alabama with very warm and muggy days. We are seeing more clouds than sun today with afternoon highs in the low to mid 80s, which are several degree above average for this time of year.
With a stalled front in place, we continue see showers and thunderstorms today across Alabama, with the highest coverage across the northern half of the state.
An approaching front from the northwest will stall over Northwest Alabama late today. It is bringing some rain and storms mainly the northern half of the state today, but it will not rain everywhere.
High pressure to our east and an upper ridge over the top of us means warm days ahead with afternoon highs around ten degrees above average for this time of year.
The area of high pressure responsible for our amazing weather, has slid east into the Carolinas today, allowing our winds to become more southerly.
After a chilly morning across Alabama, we are warming up nicely this afternoon with highs in the 70s.
