Central Alabama Weather Update: Looks like Central Alabama is in for a chilly night, especially if you’re planning to catch the Homewood Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting. Temperatures are dipping into the 40s after starting in the 50s. So, grab that cozy coat!
As the night unfolds, expect partly cloudy skies and a touch of frost as a cold front sweeps through, bringing those lows down to the 30s. Brrr!
Come Wednesday, that dry cold front will make its grand entrance, bringing morning clouds, a brisk breeze, and a dose of cold air. But fear not, sunshine will take over, pushing those temperatures to the upper 40s to lower 50s. Wednesday night, brace yourself for clear skies, frosty conditions, and lows dipping into the mid-20s to around 30°F.
Heading towards Thursday and Friday, a high-pressure area will set up shop in the Southeast U.S., ensuring sunny days with temperatures in the 50s and 60s. Chilly nights are on the agenda with lows snuggling into the 30s.
Now, let’s talk about the weekend. Saturday kicks off with a mostly cloudy, windy, and dry day. Highs aim for around 70°F, but keep an eye out for a late-night cold front. It’s bringing some scattered showers and thunderstorms, possibly flexing their muscles with gusty winds and heavy rain.
Come Sunday, that front should bid farewell, leaving us with partly to mostly cloudy skies. Highs will be cooler, hanging around the mid-50s. But hold on, the rain-ending schedule might be a bit fickle, so stay tuned for any forecast updates before the weekend hits.
