Skip to contentAdvertisementCold front brings a few showers and much colder air to central AlabamaTHE ANTICIPATED COLD FRONT IS INCHING CLOSER AND YOU CAN ALREADY RECOGNIZE SOME CHANGES. A LOT OF CLOUDS IN THE SKY TODAY. 74 DEGREES IN BIRMINGHAM AT THIS HOUR. IT’S A LITTLE BIT MORE HUMID, TOO. WE ACTUALLY HAVE SOME SHOWERS ON WVTM 13 LIVE. DOPPLER RADAR. IT’S BEEN A WHILE SINCE WE’VE SEEN SOME RAIN. THESE ARE VERY LIGHT AND THEY WON’T AMOUNT TO MUCH. A LOT OF PLACES GO RAIN FREE TODAY, BUT THOSE THAT ARE GETTING A FEW SHOWERS HERE AND THERE, VERY APPRECIATIVE OF BLOUNT COUNTY OVER TOWARD ETOWAH COUNTY AND DOWN TOWARD TALLADEGA, MOST OF THEM NORTH OF I-20 AT THIS HOUR, IN THE CLOUDS AND RAIN ARE HELPING KEEP THE TEMPERATURE DOWN TODAY, 75 IN ALABASTER IN TUSCALOOSA, EVEN GREEN COUNTY, WHERE IT’S NORMALLY MUCH WARMER, 75 IN ALICEVILLE AND EUTAW, NORTH OF I-20. COLEMAN GADSDEN, FORT PAYNE, UPPER 60S, LOWER 70S. BUT IT FEELS PRETTY, PRETTY NICE OUTSIDE, EVEN THOUGH IT’S A LITTLE BIT MORE HUMID THIS EVENING. A FEW OF THOSE SHOWERS WILL LINGER THROUGH. FIVE, SIX, 7 P.M. AS THE FRONT GLIDES SOUTH AND EAST. SO. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAME MAY BE DODGING A FEW SHOWERS AT KICKOFF, BUT THIS IS VERY LIGHT RAIN. NOT WORRIED ABOUT ANY THUNDER OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. AND THEN THIS EVENING, ONCE THAT MOVES OUT, WE’RE GOING TO BE LEFT WITH TEMPERATURES THAT ARE MUCH COOLER. IT’S GOING TO BE REALLY CHILLY, 65 AROUND TEN, 10:00. I WANT YOU TO NOTICE WHERE THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS. REMEMBER THAT WE CALL IT A FRONT. IT DIVIDES TWO AIR MASSES. SO SOME CLOUDS AND SHOWERS PUSHING OFF TO THE SOUTH AND EAST. ONCE THIS FRONT PASSES, MUCH DRIER AND MUCH COOLER AIR IS BEHIND IT. IN FACT, THE COOLEST AIR WE’VE SEEN SINCE THE SPRING. YOU CAN ALREADY SEE THE CENTRAL PART OF THE STATES BEING IMPACTED BY THAT. WE’RE NOT GOING TO BE THAT COOL IN THE AFTERNOON. WE’RE NOT GOING TO SEE 50S, BUT WE ARE GOING TO BE MUCH COOLER THAN WE HAVE BEEN AND EVEN DROP BELOW AVERAGE IN TEMPERATURE, ESPECIALLY IN THE MORNINGS. YOUR WEEKEND IS GOING TO BE VERY NICE. SPEND SOME TIME OUTSIDE AND IT’S GOING TO BE COOL. CRISP, TRULY FALL AIR MASS IN PLACE. UPPER 60S FOR THE HIGHS ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY MIGHT BE A BIT BREEZY TOMORROW. A STEADY NORTH WIND FOLLOWS BEHIND THAT FRONT. SO A LITTLE BIT WINDY AT TIMES, BUT IT’S GOING TO BE NICE. PLENTY OF SUNSHINE AND THAT’S THE HIGHS, THE MORNING LOWS. LOOK AT THESE 40S. IT’S GOING TO BE CHILLY IF YOU DON’T LIKE COOLER WEATHER, YOU’RE GOING TO WANT TO BUNDLE UP, ESPECIALLY IN THE MORNING IS SUNDAY MORNING IN THE 40S AND WE CARRY THAT WITH US THROUGH MONDAY. AND THEN TUESDAY WE’LL WARM UP JUST A LITTLE BIT. BUT REALLY NICE THIS WEEKEND. PLEASE TAKE ADVANTAGE. PLEASE ENJOY. WE WARM UP A LITTLE BIT INTO NEXT WEEK AND THEN IF YOU DON’T GET ANY RAIN TODAY, THE NEXT CHANCE COMES LATER, NEXT WEEK INAdvertisementCold front brings a few showers and much colder air to central AlabamaWe have a major change to the weather arriving over the next few days. Scattered light showers are possible today ahead of a big drop in temperature this weekend.Check the video forecast for the latest.HERE COMES THE COLD FRONTShowers will be possible today, but the coverage and intensity of rain will likely be disappointing to those needing some water for their yards. It won't be as warm thanks to the clouds and the light rain, but you'll notice the jump in humidity. Unfortunately, any rain that falls is expected to be light. Rainfall amounts in most areas will not top 0.25 inches. In fact, many areas likely pick up less than a tenth of an inch. A few lingering light rain showers are possible at kickoff for Friday night football games, especially across the east. As we move through the evening, the rain will be moving out as breezy north winds usher in cooler and drier air. It will turn chilly by the time the games end.WEEKEND WEATHER A steep drop in temperature will follow behind the cold front. In fact, this weekend welcomes the coldest air we've seen since the month of May! Most places peak only in the upper 60s across central Alabama on Saturday under a clear blue sky. Steady, northerly winds bring a cool, crisp feel to the air and keep it breezy at times. The weekend will be filled with lots of sunshine. Sunday brings highs in the upper 60s again and low 70s further south. Temperatures will drop quite a bit below average, at least for a couple of days. The mornings will be chilly! North and East Alabama should look for lows in the upper 30s and low 40s Sunday morning. Lows in the lower to mid-40s are expected for the rest of central Alabama. LOOKING AHEADMonday morning still brings a chill to the air with lows in the upper 40s and low 50s. The weather stays nice through next week, but temperatures do gradually warm by a few degrees every day. A little bit of moisture will return to the air as well due to a change in wind direction. If you're wishing for rain, a chance of showers will return later next week (Thursday and Friday) as another disturbance looks to come close. How much rain and exact timing is questionable at this point, but the forecast will become clearer with time.CLICK TO SEE THE 7-DAY FORECASTSTAY WEATHER AWAREFor the latest Birmingham weather information and central Alabama's certified most accurate forecast, watch WVTM 13 News.Current Weather ConditionsHourly Forecast | 10-Day ForecastInteractive RadarBirmingham SkycamsLive Doppler RadarSign Up For Email Weather AlertsDownload the WVTM 13 AppDon't forget to follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.We have a major change to the weather arriving over the next few days.
