A strong cold front will push across the Deep South tonight, bringing a line of showers and isolated thunderstorms. Temperatures will drop rapidly behind this front. We are scheduled to be at the freezing mark by early Sunday morning. The moisture source seems to be lacking so, just a mention of flurries possible at this time for the Birmingham area. The major concern after the rain will be Black Ice. Rural, valley and low lying areas in particular; Roads which appear clear in the cold season may actually be coated with a thin layer of ice, commonly called black ice. This nearly invisible ice layer can cause you to rapidly lose control of your vehicle. Black ice is most common during the nighttime hours into very early morning. If you detect black ice, reduce your speed!


Behind the front, strong gusty winds will create very cold and blustery conditions. Sustained winds will remain around 20 mph, gusts to 30 or 40 mph. This will create wind chill temperatures in the teens on Sunday...while single digit wind chills are possible in higher elevations. As colder air continues to funnel into the region...temperatures will likely fall into the teens area wide on Monday morning. Continued breezy conditions will produce wind chill temperatures below zero in some portions of the area. A wind chill advisory may be issued for Sunday night and Monday morning.

Winter Weather Coming!

Few isolated showers expected mainly afternoon and in the evening, near Huntsville through Gadsden and Southeast. This front will bring a blast of cold air by Sunday. Tuesday morning thru Wednesday morning look to be the coldest that we have seen so far since last winter, widespread 20s and some teens.

Wonderful Weekend Weather

The 90s Return...
When I see unseasonably cooler afternoon temperatures in the early fall, I can tell the summer temperatures are not quite finished with us yet.  I'm a meteorologist not a climatologist however, I do know the atmosphere has a way of balancing itself out.  The planet is always gearing toward equilibrium.  Bottom line...there has been cooler and hotter days...to the global warming enthusiasts.  Anyone want to chat about La Niña?

Rain and drizzle this morning, temperatures holding in the low-mid 70's. Finally the grip of the summer heat has loosened. It has been nice to not be drenched in sweat from the front door of my house to the car door. Today we start off rainy, but skies will clear a bit later today and temperature will make it into upper 80's in the afternoon. We will look for partly cloudy skies with highs in the low 90's for the remainder of your workweek. A weak front will arrive Friday. There will be a chance of an afternoon or nighttime shower. Behind that front mid-upper 60s overnight.

Weather Forecasters Summer Dream...

  I can put my feet up today...well for now.  When I got out of the car this morning at the station, an unfamiliar cool breeze hit my ankle. That delightful breeze on Red Mountain was a marvelous gift this morning. Working outside today? Well if you are, finally a break from the heat. Today is one of those days to look ahead. We are looking toward the weekend now on the hump day. A dry cold front will push through the area by the end of the week and leave us with Party Cloudy skies and upper 80s for your highs for the weekend, mid-upper 60s overnight...Enjoy!
