Dry Through Early Next Week

An all new edition of the ABC 33/40 Weather Xtreme video is available in the player on the right sidebar of the blog. You can subscribe to the Weather Xtreme video on iTunes by clicking here.

COOL DAYS, COLD NIGHTS: We have a pretty simple forecast through the weekend with dry, continental air in place across the Deep South. While we rise into the mid 50s today, a fresh supply of cool air moves in tonight, and the high tomorrow will drop back to near 50. The coldest morning should come early Sunday with mid to upper 20s, then we warm into the mid 50s Sunday afternoon. The sky will stay mostly sunny each day.

NEXT WEEK: Look for a slow warm-up next week, with highs reaching the low 60s by Tuesday and Wednesday. Clouds will slowly increase, and the next chance of rain comes on Thursday, possibly into Friday, with a surface low passing well to the north of the state. With the low so far north, along with the upper support, the trailing front will just creep along, and maybe even stall out, which could give us several days with a chance of showers. No severe weather with the lack of upper support and instability.

CHRISTMAS? Now that Christmas Day is getting into the “medium range”, at first glance computer model data shows no really unusual weather or temperature extremes around the big day, but of course, that is out there in voodoo land, so no way to be specific now. But don’t get your hopes up for back to back years with a White Christmas.

WEATHER BRAINS: Don’t forget you can listen to our weekly 90 minute netcast anytime on the web, or on iTunes. This is the show all about weather featuring many familiar voices, including our meteorologists here at ABC 33/40.

CONNECT: You can find me on all of the major social networks…
