Weather Disco

One more day of warmer temperatures as you head back to work or school, but the Cold Air will move in overnight. . Hello, I'm Meteorologist, Charles Daniel.

Monday will be the last warm day we see for a little while. As the Center of High Pressure drifts to our East, we will begin to pick up a nice Southwesterly Flow in the atmosphere. This will help us warm up into the mid to upper 70's across Central Alabama. More importantly, this SW flow will bring an increase in moisture in the atmosphere. Don't get too excited. This slight increase in moisture will be enough to raise Dewpoints from the mid 40's into the low 50's. Still a very dry atmosphere as a Cold Front approaches. Clouds will slowly build up ahead of the front, but expect to see plenty of sunshine through most of Monday.

As the Front passes through Central Alabama Monday night, it could ring out a few showers here and there, but the overall rain chances are not impressive. I went with an aggressive 30% chance of rain. As the Front exits East Alabama Tuesday midday skies will quickly clear out and the sunshine will return.... the warmth won't!

Behind the Front, expect to see much, MUCH cooler temperatures. Morning temps will be as low as the Low 30's Wednesday morning and we will struggle to get close to 60 degrees in the afternoons on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Cold Front will bring us a re-enforcement of cold, dry air rather than a good chance of rain.
