Strong/Severe Storms Push Into Alabama Tomorrow Morning
THIS AFTERNOON: A warm front continues to push across Alabama, and we have a big temperature spread at mid-afternoon. Tuscaloosa reports 75 degrees at 2pm with a dew point of 70, but cooler air is still across Northeast Alabama, where Gadsden reports 55 degrees. The sky is mostly cloudy over the northern half of the state, and a few spotty showers are moving northeast. The warm, unstable air will finally push into the northeast counties of the state tonight, and winds will increase as a cold front approaches.

Highs In The 70s Today; Strong/Severe Storms Tomorrow
WARM DECEMBER DAY: A warm front continues to push northward across Alabama early this morning with a few scattered showers; the sky will be generally cloudy today with a very mild afternoon. We project a high in the mid 70s… the record high for December 10 is 79 set in 2007. We will be watching developments to the northwest late this afternoon and tonight; SPC has defined an “enhanced risk” (level 3/5) of severe thunderstorms from the Mississippi Delta region northward into parts of Illinois and Indiana. Storms that form in that region will become severe, and a strong tornado or two can’t be ruled out.
