How’s The Weather Across Central Alabama At Midday?

It’s a beautiful day across much of Central Alabama at the midday hour, and temperatures are quite nice as well. The only part of the area with any cloud cover is the extreme east and southeastern parts of Central Alabama, where some low stratus clouds are floating in from west and southwestern Georgia. Temperatures are currently in the upper 60s to the mid 70s across much of the area, with the exception of Auburn, where cloud cover is keeping it at 64 degrees. The warm spots are currently 75 degrees at Selma and Montgomery.

For the rest of the day and into the evening hours tonight, skies will become partly clouds as more clouds will move in from the east. We will stay dry today, and afternoon highs will reach the upper 60s to the mid 70s. A few spots could reach the upper 70s, especially in the extreme southern parts of Central Alabama.

Another nice day is on tap for Friday, as we’ll remain dry for one more day and temperatures will be warmer. Skies will be partly cloudy throughout the day, as we’ll be waiting for our next system to move in for Saturday. The early morning will start off in the upper 40s to the upper 50s across the area, but warming nicely into the mid 70s to the lower 80s. Skies will be partly to mostly cloudy for the evening and overnight hours, and lows will be dropping into the mid to upper 50s, with some staying around 80 degrees.

Just remember that we do have a threat for severe weather on Saturday afternoon through the evening hours. The main window for severe storms across the area will be from 12PM on Saturday until 12AM on Sunday. The main threats will be from damaging straight-line winds and large hail, but a few isolated tornadoes can’t be ruled out as well. As James mentioned earlier in his post, it’s not expected to be a “red letter” day for severe weather, but all it takes is one microburst or tornado to impact your neighborhood to make it a “red letter” day for you. We have to pay attention to all severe weather threats this time of the year.

And speaking of severe weather, the ABC 33/40 weather team will be on the road through early April offering free storm spotter classes. We need more trained spotters in Alabama; by attending you can make the severe weather warning process better. No need to register; just come with a curious mind. And, there is no age limit… kids that love weather will enjoy it. You will never look at a storm the same again. The next class will be this evening at the Gardendale Civic Center at 6:30.
