WET START TO THE WEEK
Rain will be likely overnight through Monday morning for most of the state, and some of us will get a very good soaking.
The widespread rain will end early Monday, but we do expect occasional, spotty, hit-or-miss showers, clouds, and drizzle to linger through the day. Temperatures will rise to the mid-60s in the afternoon despite the overcast sky.
Total rainfall through midday Monday will range from near a half inch to as much as two inches in a few relatively narrow bands of territory in the northwestern part of Alabama.
Widespread rain will build in again over the southern half of the state Monday afternoon and evening dropping around 0.5 to 1 inch of rainfall south of Interstate 20 through early Tuesday morning.
STORMS ON TUESDAY
A cold front will move into Alabama on Tuesday afternoon and bring one more round of showers and a few storms, and there is a marginal risk of severe storms for the southeastern quarter of the state from late morning into the afternoon.
The risk is relatively low because we do not expect many strong storms, but those that do develop could become strong with gusty winds, hail, heavy rain, and lightning.
Highs on Tuesday will reach the 60s for one more day ahead of a quick blast of cold air for the middle of the week.
Total rainfall through Tuesday will range from around one to two inches on average, but some communities especially over the far southern part of the state could get up to three or four inches of rain.
COLDER FOR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY
The air behind this week's cold front won't be as harsh as the last Arctic blast, but it will still be noticeable from Wednesday through Thursday.
Rain will get blown out of Alabama by a strong cold front early Wednesday morning. While some forecast guidance hinted at a brief change to snow a few days ago, that does not look like a realistic expectation with this week’s weather.
Plan for "feels like" temperatures in the 20s and 30s on Wednesday morning, with little warming throughout the day. We will have full sunshine, a brisk northwest breeze gusting to 25 miles per hour, and afternoon high temperatures reaching only the mid-40s.
Prepare for another freeze early Thursday morning, with temperatures descending into the 20s before rebounding to the 50s by Thursday afternoon.
