7:00 AM | *Mild again today, but more seasonal air is on the way*

Paul Dorian

Our recent warming trend peaked on Tuesday with highs in the 70’s in northern Alabama, and temperatures will remain above-normal today reaching the 60’s in most spots.  A cold front will cross the region tonight and temperatures will trend downward for the second half of the week so that by Friday afternoon, highs will likely be pretty close to the 50 degree mark.

7:00 AM | **A mild and increasingly moist weather pattern for northern Alabama...severe weather outbreak possible early next week**

Paul Dorian

Our warming trend will intensify over the next few days as high pressure builds over the western Atlantic Ocean.  As a result, temperatures around here will climb to near 60 degrees for highs both this afternoon and on Friday afternoon and then likely well into the 60’s this weekend.  This increasingly mild pattern will become increasingly moist as well with a shower and thunderstorm threat from Friday into the middle part of next week. In fact, a severe weather outbreak is on the table for the Tennessee Valley during the early-to-middle part of next week as an overall very active weather pattern continues across the nation.

7:00 AM | *60+ degrees for the late week and weekend*

Paul Dorian

The Arctic air mass that brought frigid temperatures to the region this past weekend has modified and Pacific Ocean air is on the march from west-to-east.  Our warming trend will intensify to bring us temperatures to near 60 degrees by Thursday and then into the 60’s for Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  The warm up will become increasingly moist as well and showers are is likely here by the end of the week and during the weekend.

7:00 | *Arctic air mass retreats...mild, moist by week's end*

Paul Dorian

The Arctic air mass that brought frigid temperatures to the region the past few days will retreat and milder air from the Pacific is headed in this direction.  In fact, the warm up intensifies by later in the week so that temperatures around here will climb towards the 60 degree mark on Thursday and Friday and then into the 60’s this weekend. The warm up will become increasingly moist as well and rain is likely here by the end of the week.

10:00 AM | ****Buckle up…wild and crazy weather next 36 hours in the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast US****

Paul Dorian

Buckle up…the next 36 hours or so in the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast US will feature some wild and crazy weather to include the following:

-heavy rain including thunderstorms

-localized flash flooding

-a surge in temperatures to the 50’s

-extreme plunge in temperatures to the single digits

-flash-freeze

-a burst of snow with small accumulations

-powerful and potentially damaging wind gusts

All of this weather can take place between about noon today and midnight tomorrow night headlined by a soaking rain event into early Friday and then the arrival of an intensely cold Arctic air mass later Friday morning.

7:00 AM | ****Arctic blast arrives tonight and early morning temperatures are likely to be in the single digits following the post-frontal dramatic plunge****

Paul Dorian

The strong Arctic frontal system that represents the leading edge of an intensely cold air mass will reach the Huntsville region later tonight.  It’ll stay mild through the day with rain showers possible and then the bottom will fall out with temperatures post frontal passage plunging all the way to single digits by Friday morning. Snow showers are possible late tonight and winds will be very strong adding to potential difficult travel conditions. A frigid weekend will follow with Christmas Eve (Saturday) and Christmas Day (Sunday) the coldest in many years in much of the eastern half of the nation.

2:20 PM | ****Arctic air mass drops south to Texas then shifts east…reaches I-95 corridor late morning/mid-day on Friday...plunging temperatures, damaging winds, flash freeze, burst of snow****

Paul Dorian

The core of an intensely cold Arctic air mass is now getting ready to plunge southward to Texas by later tomorrow and then it’ll shift to the eastern states on Friday.  Numerous low temperature records are likely to be set over the next couple of days as this air mass makes its way across the nation. Blizzard conditions will accompany this advancing Arctic air outbreak over much of the eastern half of the country with the Great Lakes region likely to experience some of the worst weather with an extended period of extreme conditions from Friday into late weekend. 

The powerful Arctic frontal system that represents the leading edge of this intensely cold air mass will reach the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor during the late morning/mid-day on Friday.  Temperatures will drop dramatically in the wake of the frontal passage some 30+ degrees in a short period of time. Any wet spots on roadways from prior rainfall could freeze-up in a hurry.  There will be very strong wind gusts on Friday and a burst of snow is likely immediately behind the frontal passage that can produce a quick coating to an inch or two.  A frigid weekend will follow with Christmas Eve (Saturday) and Christmas Day (Sunday) the coldest in many years across much of the eastern half of the nation. Single digits are likely in many spots along the I-95 corridor both on Saturday and Sunday mornings.

7:00 AM | ****Powerful Arctic front arrives on Thursday night...its passage will not go unnoticed****

Paul Dorian

The core of an intensely cold Arctic air mass will drop southward towards Texas during the next 24-48 hours. After that, the Arctic air mass will shift to the east and reach the eastern seaboard by late Friday.  Numerous low temperature records are likely to be set over the next few days; especially, in the central US from the Canadian border to the Mexican border. Blizzard conditions will accompany this advancing Arctic air outbreak over many sections of the country with the Great Lakes region likely to experience some of the worst weather with an extended period of extreme conditions from Friday into much of the upcoming weekend. 

The strong Arctic frontal system that represents the leading edge of this intensely cold air mass will likely reach the Huntsville region on Thursday.  The passage of the powerful Arctic front will not go unnoticed around here.  On the table will be plunging temperatures on the order of 25 or 30 degrees in a short period of time, powerful and potentially damaging wind gusts, a possible “flash-freeze”, and even a burst of snow that can put down a quick small accumulation.  A frigid weekend will follow with Christmas Eve (Saturday) and Christmas Day (Sunday) the coldest in many years in much of the eastern half of the nation.

2:00 PM | ****Arctic air mass drops south to Texas…Arctic front reaches I-95 corridor mid-day/afternoon on Friday...plunging temperatures, damaging winds, quick freeze, even a burst of snow****

Paul Dorian

The core of an intensely cold Arctic air mass is now penetrating the northwest and north-central parts of the nation, and it will drop southward towards Texas during the next 48 hours. After that, the Arctic air mass will shift to the east and reach the eastern seaboard by late Friday.  Numerous low temperature records are likely to be set over the next few days; especially, in the central US from the Canadian border to the Mexican border. Blizzard conditions will accompany this advancing Arctic air outbreak during the next few days over many sections of the country with the Great Lakes region likely to experience some of the worst with an extended period of extreme conditions from Friday into much of the upcoming weekend. 

The strong Arctic frontal system that represents the leading edge of this intensely cold air mass will likely reach the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor during the mid-day and afternoon hours on Friday.  The passage of the powerful Arctic front will not go unnoticed.  On the table will be plunging temperatures on the order of 25 or 30 degrees in a short period of time, powerful and potentially damaging wind gusts, a possible “flash-freeze”, and even a burst of snow that can put down a quick small accumulation of a coating to an inch or two  A frigid weekend will follow with Christmas Eve (Saturday) and Christmas Day (Sunday) the coldest in many years in much of the eastern half of the nation. Single digits are certainly a possibility along the I-95 corridor both on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
