Alabama is in for a pleasant springtime weekend, with sunshine and comfortable temperatures expected on Saturday. Highs will range from the upper 60s to upper 70s, but breezy winds could increase fire danger, so caution is advised for outdoor burning. Sunday will see increasing clouds in the afternoon, with a few stray showers possible before sunset. However, the real action is expected Sunday night, with a chance of strong storms mainly in northwestern Alabama.
The Storm Prediction Center has placed the area west of a line from Hytop to Hanceville to Tuscaloosa at a level 1 out of 5 risk for severe storms, with the main threats being gusty winds and hail. The tornado risk is low but not zero. The storms should move out after 2 a.m., but residents are advised to stay weather-aware and have a way to receive alerts while sleeping.
Heading into the work week, Monday will see any lingering rain clear out early, with sunshine developing in the afternoon. Tuesday will be beautiful with sunny skies, but southern Alabama could see showers. Wednesday will continue the trend of sunny weather with warm temperatures. Thursday will bring a weak front but will remain mild and dry. Dry, warm weather will continue into Friday, but the weekend may bring more rain and storms.
As Alabama enters its peak severe weather season, it is important for residents to stay prepared and stay informed with updates from meteorologists like James Spann and Scott Martin. For more weather information, visit AlabamaWx.
