GOOD MORNING. WE ARE WATCHING THE SUN COME UP ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA, REVEALING A NICE CLEAR SKY. A LITTLE BIT OF PATCHY FOG IN SOME LOCATIONS. DEMOPOLIS SHOWING SOME OF THAT RIVER FOG HERE. TEMPERATURE AT 33 DEGREES. OUR COOL SPOT GADSDEN AT 29. WE’VE GOT A MIXTURE OF 20S AND 30S ACROSS THE REGION. THIS MORNING. TEMPERATURES IN SOME LOCATIONS BELOW THAT FREEZING MARK. THERE’S A FREEZE WARNING AND FROST ADVISORY THROUGH 8 A.M. SO TEMPERATURES THIS MORNING STARTING IN THE 30S IN MOST SPOTS. BUT WE WARM QUICKLY TODAY. LOOK AT 9 A.M. WE’RE ALREADY CLOSE TO 50 DEGREES UNDER A SUNNY SKY AT LUNCHTIME. WE’RE IN THE LOW 60S, SO THIS IS CLOSE TO AVERAGE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. BUT WE’RE GOING ABOVE THAT BY THE LATE AFTERNOON. I’M FORECASTING HIGHS TO END UP IN THE MIDDLE AND EVEN UPPER 60S IN SOME LOCATIONS. SO TODAY IS A VERY WARM AND PLEASANT DAY. A GREAT DAY TO BE OUTDOORS. WE’VE GOT A COUPLE DIFFERENT WEATHER SYSTEMS ON THE WAY THOUGH. TOMORROW WE’LL HAVE SOME CLOUDS BUILDING IN. WE’RE VERY WARM. WE’RE IN THE 70S WITH A FRONT MOVING THROUGH LATE TOMORROW EVENING. THIS IS WHAT WE LOOK LIKE DURING THE MORNING HOURS. WE’VE GOT SOME CLOUDS AROUND, THEN BY LUNCHTIME WE’RE STILL DRY. THAT FRONT REALLY DOESN’T MOVE IN UNTIL OVERNIGHT. SO ANY KIND OF CHANCE OF RAIN LOOKS TO HOLD OFF UNTIL YOU ARE REALLY ALREADY IN BED. FOR THE EVENING. THESE ARE JUST SOME SHOWERS. WE’RE NOT EXPECTING ANY STRONG STORMS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, JUST SOME GOOD OLD FASHIONED RAIN FOR US LATE TOMORROW NIGHT. EXITING BY THE EARLY MORNING HOURS ON TUESDAY. BUT THEN AFTER THAT WE DO HAVE ANOTHER CHANCE FOR SOME RAIN THAT LOOKS TO MOVE IN ON THURSDAY SO QUICKLY. I DID WANT TO SHOW YOU WHERE OUR HIGHS ARE GOING TO BE TOMORROW, BECAUSE WE’RE TALKING A VERY WARM DAY, ESPECIALLY COMPARED TO SOME OF THE TEMPERATURES WE’VE HAD AROUND HERE LATELY. WE ARE LOOKING AT ANYWHERE FROM THE UPPER 60S NORTH TO THE UPPER 70S IN SOME OF OUR SOUTHERNMOST COMMUNITIES. THEN ON TUESDAY, A LITTLE BIT COOLER BEHIND THAT FRONT. WEDNESDAY WE’VE GOT SOME CLOUDS BUILDING IN AND THE CHANCE OF RAIN MOVES IN JUST IN TIME FOR THANKSGIVING DAY. THIS IS MIDNIGHT. SOME SHOWERS POSSIBLE AT THAT POINT. IT DOES LOOK LIKE IT’S GOING TO BE A WET DAY AT TIMES. WE COULD HAVE SOME THUNDER AS WELL AS WE GET CLOSER TO THANKSGIVING DAY WILL BE A LOT MORE SPECIFIC ON ANY KIND OF CHANCE OF STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS. RIGHT NOW, THIS LOOKS TO BE JUST MAINLY A RAIN AND THUNDER THREAT THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY. SOME HEAVIER RAIN POSSIBLE AS WE HEAD INTO THURSDAY EVENING AND WORTH NOTING, WE’RE GOING TO GET ANOTHER BLAST OF SOME ARCTIC AIR BEHIND THIS NEXT FRONT THAT’S GOING TO REALLY DROP OUR TEMPERATURES FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. WE ARE TALKING SOME VERY, VERY COLD AIR IN HERE. I KNOW WE’VE GOT THE IRON BOWL ON SATURDAY AND IT IS GOING TO BE A GAME WHERE IF YOU’RE OUT THERE, YOU’
