Can’t Miss Alabama: Spring into action at the Taste of Soul Family Festival
Plenty to see and do across Alabama this weekend as we take a look with this week’s edition of Can’t Miss Alabama.
SUNNY, WARM AFTERNOON: Temperatures are in the 78-83 degree range across Alabama this afternoon with a good supply of sunshine. The sky will stay mostly fair tonight with a low between 58 and 63 degrees.
Ample sunshine and warm temperatures are making for a marvelous March day across Alabama. Highs this afternoon are climbing into the low and mid 80s for much of North/Central Alabama, and with little to no humidity, it if feeling oh so nice.
WARM MARCH DAY: With a mostly sunny sky, we are forecasting a high in the 81-85 degree range this afternoon, making it one of the warmest days so far in 2023. The average high for Birmingham on March 23 is 69. The day tomorrow will also be warm and dry with a high in the low 80s.
THIS AFTERNOON: The southern 2/3 of Alabama is enjoying a mostly sunny, mild day with temperatures in the 70s. A few showers linger over the northern counties this afternoon with a mostly cloudy sky; places like Huntsville are only in the 50s because of clouds and rain. Showers end this evening, and the sky will be mostly fair tonight with a low in the 50s.
The morning showers across North Alabama continue to fade away and push north into Tennessee. This afternoon we are seeing a mix of sun and clouds across North Alabama, while more sun is shining across Central and South Alabama.
ILLEGAL SHOWERS: We have showers over the northern third of Alabama early this morning, generally north of I-20. These are “illegal” because they weren’t in the forecast for today; the idea was that most of the rain this morning would be north of the Tennessee River, over far North Alabama and Tennessee. But the air moistened up sufficiently for some rain down into the northern third of the state.
WARMING TREND BEGINS: Temperatures are in the 57-65 degree range across much of Alabama this afternoon with a partly to mostly sunny sky; clouds are thicker across the Tennessee Valley, where a few sprinkles are showing up on radar. Rain will move across Tennessee this evening… staying generally north of Alabama. For a change, we stay above freezing tonight with lows mostly in the 40s.
