Nicest period this week likely to be in the Wednesday afternoon into Thursday time frame when rain chances will be at their smallest and when we may actually receive a little sunshine.

Most areas will not see rain during the day today but storms expected with a front tonight.

These low clouds, fog and drizzle will give way to warmer weather by Tuesday afternoon, then an approaching cold front will bring some showers and thunderstorms Tuesday night.

First feature due to affect us Tuesday night into Wednesday with the 2nd one coming Friday afternoon into Saturday.

It will feel very fall like this afternoon with plenty of clouds and unseasonably cool temperatures.

Rain tapering off tonight

Rain Returns Sunday

It will get rather cool overnight with temperatures sinking down to near 50.  Saturday will be a stunningly beautiful day with sunshine and temperatures heading to near 80.

Stage is set for a super Saturday with sunshine and highs close to 80 with very low humidity.  Sunday will be a bit of a let down with increasing cloudiness leading to rain arriving afternoon or evening.

Band of rain with the front is quite narrow. that combined with fast movement means the rain will not last very long in any given spot, and the total amount of rain that falls will not be excessive.

One More Sunny Afternoon

But cold front still on target to get here Friday, and that will mean showers and thunderstorms. Assuming the front keeps on moving, Saturday and Sunday will still be okay.

Strong cold front due to arrive Friday, greatly increasing rain chances.  It still looks like it will leave the area on time for Saturday and Sunday to be nice again.

Another Beautiful Afternoon

High pressure will be in control for the next 2 days, and that means more fine weather.  Still looks like cold front arrives Friday with showers and thunderstorms.

Next storm on the horizon, and it will bring a dramatic change on Friday when showers and thunderstorms again march across central Alabama.

A beautiful afternoon!

This large, dry Canadian air mass is here for the long-haul, at least if you consider 3 days the “long-haul”.  We have three simply beautiful days coming up.  Moisture will return later on this week, and that combined with a cold front will mean showers on Friday.

Cold front moving through southern sections of the area now.  Northwest winds will bring a significant change to cooler, much less humid weather starting tonight, and the next 3 days look simply fantastic!

Turning cooler tonight

Many parts of central Alabama will taste the 40’s for the first time this season, with the chilliest weather coming Monday night, Tuesday night and Wednesday night.  Days will be muich less humid and will have that real “autumn-feel” to them.

Sunny, Cool Days Ahead!

Some showers and thundershowers are likely on Saturday, then a second cold front will bring much less humid air by Monday night and Tuesday.

Better weather for Sunday with mainly rainfree conditions and a warm afternoon high in the 80’s.  Second cold front arrives next week to sweep away humidity.

There is some good news and bad news concerning our weekend weather.  Which do you want first?

Rain chances look limited overnighrt, will increase some on Friday, and then rain chances increase further on Saturday.

Saturday looks like the next chance of significant showers and thunderstorms.  It will not be the beginning of a several-day siege like we just had.  Still with saturated ground, there could still be some flash flooding, and some of the storms may bring gusty winds.

Finally, a dry day!  More rain coming this weekend.

It finally looks as if we will get a true cold front to come through the area, but we’ll have to wait six or seven more days.

Storms returning this evening
