Briefly drying out today with more rain likely the rest of the week
More wet and unsettled weather through the upcoming week. Check the video forecast for the latest.
RAIN, RAIN, RAIN
After a soggy day yesterday, most spots will be quite a bit drier today. Don't expect to see much sunshine though as skies remain cloudy. The silver lining is temperatures will be warmer than normal with mild highs in the low to mid 60s.
STALLED FRONT
A frontal boundary will push into central Alabama tonight and stall across the area on Tuesday. This will make for a complicated temperature forecast tomorrow as there is likely to be a wide range of temperatures for the area. Places like Hamilton, Double Springs and Cullman will see a chilly day with highs in the 40s, but south of the front, temperatures will top out in the mid-50s.
Keep the umbrella handy both Tuesday and Wednesday, as occasional showers are likely on both days. Most of the rain will be light and not amount to much, but will certainly make for some annoying weather.
An ice storm is taking shape not far to our north and west across Mississippi and Tennessee, where more widespread, cold weather has invaded. It's possible northwest Alabama (near Florence and Muscle Shoals) sees some freezing rain early Wednesday with temperatures hovering near 32 degrees.
SEVEN DAY FORECAST
A stronger low-pressure area tries to develop along this stuck boundary as we move into Thursday. This will provide us with an opportunity for heavier rain once again, with an additional one to three inches of rain. Depending on the strength and track of the low, a few thunderstorms may also be possible.
It looks as if we will begin to dry out Friday, with drier weather expected to last through next weekend.
