Wet and Mild Week Ahead – Sunday Forecast Update @wvua23 #alwx
February 16, 2019 Leave a comment
It was a dreary Saturday here in Tuscaloosa. For the majority of the day, we remained dry. Just saw a few scattered showers across central Alabama. Temperatures made it into the mid to lower 50s, all thanks to a cold front that came through earlier this morning.
Sunday will be soaked, with rain showers lasting all throughout the day tomorrow. Temperatures will make it into the upper 60s, with our northern counties making it into the mid to lower 60s. The rain will start to tapper off though heading into the early morning hours on Monday.
Monday will be our only chance at seeing dry weather and the sunshine for the week ahead so enjoy President’s Day! Expect mostly sunny conditions and high temperatures in the lower 60s. Rain will start to move into the area late Monday night/early Tuesday morning.
Get your boats ready, people because Tuesday until the end of the week is going to be a complete washout. Rainy conditions every day, and we could see a few thunderstorms or two as well. I’m not expecting anything severe though. Heavy amounts of rain will fall and cumulative rain totals by the end of the week could be up to 4-6 inches here in Tuscaloosa, with greater amounts to our north. Temperatures will be on the milder side, in the mid to lower 60s.

We saw a few scattered showers earlier in the day today, otherwise we stayed under mostly cloudy conditions. I’m expecting a few showers throughout the night tonight as well. Low temperatures will be in the lower 50s, and our northern counties could reach the upper 40s.
Good Thursday afternoon and a happy valentine’s day! Temperatures warmed well into the 60s this afternoon, despite a rapid increase in clouds. Clouds will continue to thicken up a bit for tonight, with temperatures holding in the 50s overnight. A few showers are possible closer to sunrise Friday morning.
Good Tuesday afternoon! The morning round of heavy rain and storms that impacted the area is long gone, with drier and cooler conditions taking over. Temperatures will drop into the middle 30s overnight under a clearing sky. A breezy northwest wind will make conditions feel brisk overnight.
Here’s a quick radar update as of 6:15am. A line of strong storms in east Mississippi and northwest Alabama is moving east quickly. There have been a few tornado warnings in Mississippi this morning, so we’re watching radar carefully over the next few hours.
