Good Morning! Get ready for yet another June-like day late in the month of April. We’re headed for the upper 80’s each day at least through the last day of the month, Wednesday. Rain chance remains small, but not zero. Kind of like a summer day scenario. Random showers most likely in the afternoon & evening hours. By late week, an important cool front will approach. Showers and thunderstorms will increase Thursday night in through Friday. Behind the front, it will be quite a bit cooler. Some nice air is on the way. Saturday’s high may not reach 80. We’ll be in the middle 50’s by Sunday AM. Here is my brief video forecast discussion.
TODAY: Partial sunshine. Very warm again. High in the upper 80’s. East wind 5 to 10 mph. Mostly cloudy mild tonight. Low 66. (Normal hi/lo 81/56)
Future Radar: Widely scattered showers ate possible today, but many towns will stay dry.
NEXT FEW DAYS: Little day to day change through at least Wednesday and daytime Thursday, as April ends and May begins. Widely scattered storms will dot the landscape Tuesday. A late week approaching cool front will bring changes. Showers and thunderstorms will increase Thursday night in through Friday. Behind the front, it will be quite a bit cooler. Saturday’s high may not reach 80. We’ll be in the middle 50’s by Sunday AM
A late week cold front will bring is showers and storms Friday and much cooler air for the weekend.
Here’s the expected rainfall for the next 7 days. It’s now been 17 days since any measurable rain at MGM. Even over the next 7 days, expected rainfall for most places in central and south Alabama will be under .50”.
Here’s the 10 day model blend temperature trend. Cooler this weekend. Then warmer again next week.
