A powerful storm system will give us showers and thunderstorms throughout the day. Hello, I'm Meteorologist Lauren Whisenhunt.This morning we we are starting off the day with showers and thunderstorms so keep your eye to the sky when heading out the door to work. A strong area of low pressure and associated cold front will knock on our back door today giving us a good chance of rain throughout most of the day. The Storm Prediction Center has placed central Alabama under a slight risk for severe thunderstorms. The best chance of severe weather will come from the mid morning hours through the early evening. Right now, it looks like the main threats will be damaging winds and we can't rule out the possibility for an isolated tornado. Stay with CBS 42 and we'll keep you posted! The good news out of these series of disturbances is the fact that hopefully we will receive some much needed rain. Highs today will climb way above average in the low to mid 60's.
The cold front will swing through the state late tonight allowing conditions to improve by Saturday. We could see a few morning sprinkles on Saturday, but most of the day will be dry. This will not last long however. Another disturbance will give us a chance for rain late Saturday night and into Sunday. Temperatures will stay slightly above average for the weekend.
Next week arctic air will slip into the southeast giving us very chilly weather for the start of the new year.
Happy Holidays from the CBS 42 Weather Team!
