As discussed below by Bill and Brian… we have a great setup for snow showers across the northern half of Alabama late tonight and tomorrow morning due to very cold air aloft (-32 degrees C at 500 mb!!!!) and some residual moisture across the state. The important points:
*Surface temperatures will remain above freezing
*The ground is relatively warm
*No travel problems are expected
*The best chance of a dusting on grassy areas will be across high terrain locations northeast of Birmingham.
*Tomorrow will be blustery and cold with temperatures holding in the 36 to 42 degree range all day, with wind chill index values hovering around freezing.
Most people have been out of pocket in recent days due to the Thanksgiving holiday, and are probably out of the loop. You blog readers are always in the loop!
Bill Murray will keep you posted on developments tonight, and I will crank out a Weather Xtreme video by 7:00 a.m. tomorrow…
