Christmas Day Forecast


Christmas day will be a nice one! Hello I'm Meteorologist Lauren Whisenhunt.

We are starting off this Christmas morning with mostly cloudy skies. Temperatures this morning ranged from the upper 20's to lower 40's. We will see a mixture of sun and clouds today with daytime highs in the mid to upper 50's. Models are currently trending towards slightly more moisture and lift with the disturbance moving eastward today. Radar is currently indicating precipitation aloft, however, the air remains dry at the surface and that is why we are not seeing any rainfall right now. However, we could see just a slight chance for rain mainly to the east of I-65 once the air becomes more saturated today.

High pressure will stick around on Wednesday allowing for partly cloudy skies and milder temperatures. Daytime highs will be slightly above average in the low 60's.

We will see a series of disturbances moving through Central Alabama towards the end of this week into the weekend. Our rain chances will begin to pick up come Thursday along with temperatures remaining slightly above average for this time of year.

Happy Holidays from the CBS 42 Weather Team!
