A cold front will bring some big changes to our weather. Hello, I'm Meteorologist, Charles Daniel.
Yes, it's still December, but it definitely hasn't felt like it across Central Alabama. Typically this time of year, daytime highs are near 57 with overnight lows around 36. We will continue to have temperatures well above normal for a few more days.

A Cold Front will slip through Central Alabama today with minimal affect on the Temperatures. It will begin a downward trend in temperatures, but it will be a slow one. As the Front moves through expect some scattered showers. I would also look for some late day showers post-frontal passage. It will begin to clear late today and turn colder by morning. We should finally be back in the upper 30s to lower 40's Friday morning.

For the end of the week and the weekend, temperatures will be much closer to normal for this time of year with daytime highs in the low to mid 60's on Friday under partly cloudy skies.
Saturday looks to be quite wet as an area of low pressure forms in the Gulf of Mexico and moves over central Alabama. I am going to go a degree or two warmer that David Sawyer had for my Saturday Temperatures. Although the Warm Front stays South and East of the CBS 42 viewing area, I think we may see temps climb into the Low 60's. It will be a fairly wet day as well. Look for scattered showers and perhaps a thunderstorm or two Saturday Afternoon.

I want to take a moment to mention the chance for some wintry mixed precipitation Saturday night. There are hints of some wrap-around moisture moving over the colder air and I think our extreme northern counties, Marion, Winston, and Cullman counties, could see some cold rain with a flurry or two mixed in... again... a flurry or two. That's all. No snow.. Not even a dusting..
Once this storm system moves out into Saturday night, it will pull down even colder air. Sunday we will have temperatures in the mid 40's for our Highs.. what a change!

Heading back to work on Monday will be quite a shock to those not paying attention. Morning temperatures could be in the mid to lower 20's! I have stayed conservative for the most part and held on to a 28 degree Monday morning forecast.
