**No afternoon Weather Xtreme Video today due to travel**
COOLER DAYS: The stronger storms have moved out of Alabama this afternoon, but showers linger in scattered pockets across the state. Temperatures are generally in the 60s, and the air is stable. We will maintain the chance of showers and a few storms tonight, and while a strong storm is possible, no instability means no significant chance of severe weather.
SATURDAY: The models continue to trend dry for tomorrow, and we will go in that direction in our forecast. While me might see a stray shower tomorrow morning, or a few isolated showers in the afternoon, it looks like much of the day will be rain-free with some sun breaking through the clues at times. The high will be in the mid 70s.
SUNDAY: While we can’t rule out a shower in isolated spots, it looks like the day will be dry with a partly sunny sky. The cooling trend continues with a high in the low 70s.
NEXT WEEK: The core of the upper will move over North Alabama Monday, setting up a very cool and showery day. The latest GFS is printing a high of only 63 degrees with clouds and occasional showers. Heavier showers could produce some small hail due to the very cold air aloft. Then, the rest of the week will be dry with sunny days, fair nights, and a warming trend. We will be back in the 80s by the end of the week.

I had a truly wonderful time today visiting with the entire student body at Hackleburg. Those kids are so resilient despite suffering through one of the most violent tornadoes in Alabama history a little over two weeks ago. Be looking for them on the Pepsi KIDCAM today at 5:00 on ABC 33/40 News. My next Weather Xtreme video will be posted early Monday morning; Brian Peters has the video updates tomorrow and Sunday. Enjoy the weekend!
