Discussion
The work week will close out with well above normal temperatures across northern Alabama, but then a strong cold front will bring an end to the current warm spell. This cold front will arrive this evening and bring the threat of showers and possible strong thunderstorms with brief downpours and gusty winds. Once the front clears the region by early Saturday, skies will clear and temperatures will be far cooler than they will be today holding in the 50’s for highs on Saturday afternoon. After a sunny and pleasantly cool day to end the weekend, it’ll become unsettled early next week as a couple of weak disturbances pass by and then the arrival of a mid-week cold front could result in some severe weather for the area. Stay tuned on that.
