The NWS in Birmingham has issued a Lake Wind Advisory for Central Alabama from 9am until 5pm. Hello, I'm Meteorologist, Lauren Whisenhunt.A LAKE WIND ADVISORY INDICATES THAT WINDS WILL CAUSE ROUGH CHOP ON AREA LAKES. SMALL BOATS WILL BE ESPECIALLY PRONE TO CAPSIZING.
A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVED THROUGH CENTRAL ALABAMA OVERNIGHT...AND BRISK NORTH WINDS WILL INCREASE TODAY BEHIND THE FRONT. SUSTAINED WIND SPEEDS OF 15 TO 25 MPH CAN BE EXPECTED ON AREA LAKES ANDWATERWAYS.
Expect much cooler and drier air to return to Central Alabama. Current dewpoints are in the 30's and 40's which indicates a very dry airmass over us. Overall, we received anywhere from a quarter to a half of an inch of rainfall yesterday. We will also see brisk northerly winds 10-20 mph today. When you factor in the winds and temperatures, the wind chill is going to make it feel a lot colder outside. Temperatures will slowly climb to around 58 degrees by lunchtime. Then, the brisk northwest winds will continue to pump colder air into the CBS 42 viewing area causing temperatures to fall for the rest of the day.
Tonight will be quite cold with overnight lows falling into the 30's Friday morning. Be sure to bring your pets inside tonight!
Friday we have lots of sunshine throughout the day. Highs will be in the lower 60s Friday afternoon. Bundle up Friday evening as it will be chilly once again for the high school games with lows dipping to the mid 30s by night's end.
The weekend will be milder with highs returning to the upper 60s by Sunday.
