As we are making our way to the midnight hour just before we yell out, “gobble, gobble” and feast on our favorite Thanksgiving foods, we do have to get through our little severe weather threat from now through the pre-dawn hours.
SUN AND CLOUDS: We have a wide range of temperatures across Alabama this afternoon due to a rather erratic cloud cover across the state. Where clouds are in place, temperatures are in the 50s, but where the sun is shining readings are in the 65-70 degree range.
It is a dry and nice day of weather across Alabama as we are seeing a mix of sun and clouds and afternoon highs are in the upper 60s to low 70s. Tonight, a strong cold front will bring rain and storms back to Alabama and a few strong storms are possible after midnight.
Sysco recently donated 200 turkeys to distribute to Alabama National Guard (ALNG) soldiers and airmen in need during this holiday season.
DRY DAY AHEAD: Temperatures are in the 30s and 40s across Alabama early this morning; look for a high in the 60s today with a partly sunny sky. Clouds will begin to increase this afternoon ahead of a cold front, and showers will develop tonight.
Please use caution if you are driving tonight or early Wednesday morning. Fog may reduce visibilities to near zero with little warning.
CLEARING: The sky is sunny over the northern half of the state this afternoon; clouds over South Alabama will dissipate this evening as dry air takes over. Tonight will be fair with a low in the 37-43 degree range.
The rain is out of here and the sky is clearing this afternoon across Alabama. It is a cooler day with afternoon temperatures ranging from the upper 50s to upper 60s.
Preparing the Thanksgiving turkey does not just happen overnight. There is a great deal of planning involved to have the bird properly thawed and cooked in time to hit the Thanksgiving table.
RADAR CHECK: Rain is still falling early this morning across parts of Southeast Alabama; that rain will end soon and we expect a clearing sky as cooler, drier air moves into the state. Temperatures will hover around 60 degrees for the northern counties, with low to mid 60s to the south.

MILD NOVEMBER AFTERNOON: Temperatures are in the 70s across most of Alabama this afternoon with a partly sunny sky. Tonight clouds will thicken ahead of an approaching cold front. The front will bring showers to Alabama tonight and very early tomorrow morning…there might be a rumble of thunder but there is no risk of severe storms.
