First Alert Weather: A dry and warm weekend

Updated: 6 hours ago

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WBRC) - Happy Friday! It’s a nice and cool start to the morning with temperatures in the upper 50s and lower 60s. It feels great! Temperatures are a few degrees cooler than Thursday morning. First Alert AccuTrack Satellite and Radar is showing mostly clear conditions across the state. We are watching a little bit of moisture in Tennessee that is trying to push into far northwest Alabama this morning. Most of the moisture is moving into a dry air mass, so it appears unlikely we’ll see any rain make it to the ground in Central Alabama today. We are forecasting a mostly sunny to partly cloudy sky this afternoon. Temperatures may trend a few degrees warmer this afternoon with highs in the mid to upper 80s. Humidity levels will remain low enough for it to feel comfortable outside. Winds will come from the northeast at 5-10 mph. High school football games this evening will likely feel great with a mostly clear sky with temperatures cooling into the upper 70s after 7 p.m. CDT. We will likely end up near 70 by 10 p.m. CDT.
