Other than a few clouds floating over the extreme northern and central parts of Central Alabama, sun is dominating the skies across the area as we have reached the midday hour. Temperatures are in the lower 60s in the northwest to the upper 70s in the southeast. Birmingham was sitting at 70 degrees, while the warm spot was Eufaula at 77 degrees. Haleyville was the cool spot sitting at 63 degrees.

Skies will remain mostly sunny throughout the remainder of the daylight hours with a few extra clouds over the extreme southern parts of the area. Everyone stays dry today and highs will top out in the upper 60s to the upper 70s. Winds will generally be out of the northeast averaging around 5 MPH. We’ll have some clouds start moving in from the south during the overnight hours, but the rest of the area will be mostly clear. Lows will be in the upper 40s to the upper 50s.

All is quiet across the Atlantic Basin and no tropical depressions or storms are expected to form within the next 5 days.

ON THIS DAY IN WEATHER HISTORY
2005 – With the formation of Hurricane Wilma, the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season tied the record for the most named storms for any season (21 storms in 1933), and also tied the record for the most hurricanes in a single season (12 in 1969). Wilma peaked at category-5 intensity on the 19th, with a minimum central pressure falling to 882 millibars (26.05 inches of mercury), the lowest pressure ever recorded in the Atlantic Basin. Wilma also became the most rapidly-intensifying storm on record, with a maximum-sustained surface wind speed increase of 105 mph in a 24-hour period.
