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.
The sky will clear through the afternoon and it is noticeably cooler today compared to yesterday with highs ranging from the upper 60s to lower 70s.
Plenty of sunshine and blue sky visible across Alabama today. Highs this afternoon are surging into the 80s across the state, and overall it is a marvelous Monday of weather for Alabama.
Heading into the afternoon hours, we will be feeling a brisk northwest wind with clouds and scattered showers moving into and through the northern half of the state.
The latest drought monitor released this morning, shows the rains of the last week were a big help. All of Alabama is drought free, and no part of Alabama is abnormally dry.
After the frosty start to the day, we are seeing temperatures surge into the 60s and 70s this afternoon. There is not a cloud in the sky over Central Alabama, and we are seeing blue sky and sunshine in full supply.
Sunshine, blue sky, and refreshing temperatures are the forecast today and the next few days across Alabama. Highs this afternoon are in the 60s, tomorrow will feature highs in the upper 60s, while low 70s return Thursday.
