MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) – A cold front will bring favorable rain and a few thunderstorms will begin later tonight and continue throughout the day Tuesday. Once the front clears, colder air will move into the region… meaning highs in the 50s will struggle to warm up late week and overnight lows will drop into the 30s and 40s.
Today the clouds have increased after a sunny start to our day; Winds were from the south, around 5 to 10 mph, and afternoon highs easily reached the upper 70s.
Although we are dry today, rain chances increase overnight thanks to our next approaching system. Before the wet weather arrives, lows will linger in the 60s thanks to a blanket of clouds and southeast winds.

Skies will clear on Wednesday and we’ll see a stronger shot of cooler air push into the region by Thursday and Friday. Lows during this period will be in the upper 30s and lower 40s, while afternoon highs will struggle to reach the mid 60s.
As for the upcoming weekend, the weather pattern remains dry and cold. With highs in the 60s, with lots of sunshine. Lows will remain in the 30s and 40s under clear skies.
Following the Tropics: Sara is now a non-tropical remnant low in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico. Redevelopment into a tropical system is highly unlikely, but enough energy and moisture lingers to move across the north-central Gulf Coast early this week. The rest of the Atlantic Basin is calm as we approach the end of hurricane season.
