Pretty Nice Saturday Afternoon

After the foggy start to the day in some areas, we have been seeing tons of sunshine through the morning hours and now, into the afternoon hours across North/Central Alabama.

There are more clouds across southern and eastern portions of the state but for the most part, I think through the rest of the afternoon we will continue to see more sun than clouds.

Temperatures aren’t too bad this afternoon either as mid 60s cover the state. Tonight, we should see a few more clouds with lows generally in the mid and upper 40s.

FOR TOMORROW: Our Sunday should feature a mix of sun and clouds, and we can’t completely rule out a few isolated showers across the area, but for the most part rain chances remain under 20% and most locations will be staying dry. Temperatures will once again climb back into the 60s tomorrow afternoon.

RAIN RETURNS: Not much change in the forecast as we start to the new work week. Monday will feature more clouds than sun, with some scattered showers across the state. It will be a very mild day as temperatures will head towards the upper 60s and perhaps low 70s in spots. Rain and perhaps some storms will become widespread Monday night and into Tuesday as a cold front passes through the state. Still doesn’t looks like severe storms will be an issue with this system, but rain amounts 1/2 to 1 inch are likely.

Behind the front, much colder air will roll into the state during the day Tuesday. We should start Tuesday in the 60s but fall through the 50s and 40s through the afternoon and evening. There continues to be chance for a few snow flakes across North Alabama on Tuesday as cold air rushes into the state, but for the most part, not sure we see any.
