Multiple waves of rain will push through Alabama to start the week, then it gets colder for the last weekend before Christmas. Check the video forecast for the latest. SHOWERS LINGER SUNDAY NIGHTMost of central Alabama will remain dry through the rest of the evening. Counties closer to the Tennessee border could see a few showers, but everyone else will light mist and the occasional sprinkle. Temperatures will drop to the lower 50s overnight, as clouds linger through Monday. WARMER, WET AT TIMES Next week does not look like a washout, but rain will be possible at times through Wednesday night in advance of a cold front. Greater rainfall coverage will be north of I-20. The further south you travel, the chance of rain decreases substantially. The next 3 days look like this: Monday: Under a partly sunny sky, temperatures climb into the upper 60s. Showers move into North Alabama after dark into early Tuesday morning. Tuesday: Most cloudy, with a chance of showers. Highs near 70 degrees. Wednesday: Likely brings the best chance of widespread rain for the area over the next seven days. Scattered to numerous showers will sweep across Alabama, a few thunderstorms can't be ruled out though we don't expect any severe weather as instability remains low. NEXT WEEKEND Behind the front, temperatures turn cold again for the last weekend before Christmas. Afternoon highs return to the 50s on Thursday and Friday, and nights gradually get colder with lows below freezing by Saturday morning. A GLANCE AT CHRISTMASIt is impossible to nail down forecast details 10 days out, but we can zoom out, look at the broad upper-level patterns and get a good idea of what kind of weather to expect. December is an interesting month for Alabama Climatologically speaking. Alabama is no stranger to drastic temperature swings: Birmingham's record high on Christmas Day is 78° with a record low of 2° set back in 1983. This year, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day look a bit milder with temperatures near average in the mid-to-upper 50s.
