Dry Through Friday With Chilly Nights

| January 23, 2018 @ 3:14 pm

SEASONAL WEATHER: Temperatures are in the 50s across most of North/Central Alabama this afternoon; clouds are confined to the far northern counties of the state near the Tennessee border.

Tonight will be clear and cold; we project a low between 28 and 32 degrees.

TOMORROW THROUGH FRIDAY: Dry weather continues with chilly mornings. Early morning lows will be at or just below freezing; the high tomorrow will be in the 52-55 degree range, followed by upper 50s Thursday, and low 60s Friday. A sunny sky each day.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: A disturbance will move through the northern Gulf of Mexico, meaning mostly cloudy weather Saturday and Sunday with some risk of rain at times both days. Global model data suggests the highest rain coverage will come late Saturday, Saturday night, into Sunday morning. Rain amounts around 1/2″; no threat of severe thunderstorms. Highs in the low to mid 60s Saturday, and upper 50s Sunday.

NEXT WEEK: Cool, dry weather is the story for the first half the week; a cold front will bring a chance of showers and storms by Thursday or Friday, followed by sharply colder air. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.

SIX YEARS AGO TODAY: Eleven tornadoes touched down during the early morning hours on January 23, 2012; two were killed in Jefferson County. Highest rated tornado was an EF-3 that moved through parts of Center Point and Clay.
