WEDNESDAY Update:  Amazing Warming Trend – Friday Night Storm System

Good Morning!  After several chilly/cold days and nights, finally the news is getting better.  The major warming trend continues.  We’ll be into the mid 80’s on Thursday and mid to upper 80’s by Friday. Summer-like.   The next storm system will bring a round of thunderstorms, some possibly strong/severe by late Friday night.  Here’s my brief forecast discussion.

TODAY:    The big warm-up continues.  Mostly sunny.  High 78-80.  (Yesterday’s low/hi 30/68.  Normal 73/47)  South wind 5 to 10 mph.  Partly cloudy, not as cool tonight.  Low 51.


NEXT FEW DAYS:  The major warming trend continues. 

We’ll be into the mid 80’s on Thursday and mid to upper 80’s by Friday. Summer-like.   The next storm system will bring a round of thunderstorms, some possibly strong/severe by late Friday night.  Much of Alabama is in a severe weather risk. In fact, much of west Alabama is in a Level 2. Damaging wind gusts and a few tornadoes area possible   Saturday looks dry.   Another round of showers arrives Sunday as the next storm system approaches. 

Still looks like a potential Severe Weather Event is shaping up for late Friday night.  (wee hours of Saturday AM) 

SPC Much of Alabama is in a severe weather risk. In fact, much of west Alabama is in a Level 2. Damaging wind gusts and a few tornadoes area possible  We’ll continue to monitor future outlooks.

Here’s an update on potential timing.
