MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) – After a cloudy and cool Thursday, things will change today. Winds will shift to the southeast, helping to pull some warmer air into the state. Most of us will easily reach our mid-60s; it will be noticeably warmer than on Thursday.

Isolated showers and/or storms will occur throughout the day, especially in the later part of the day. One or two storms could produce isolated strong winds and/or small hail, but we do not expect widespread severe weather issues on Friday.

Saturday we’ll take a closer look. Unrest is expected to break out across the region. Temperatures will rise to near 70° and winds will remain breezy.

A FIRST WARNING as some stronger storms will be possible during the afternoon and night of Saturday, with the main threat being damaging wind gusts and large hail. The chance of tornadoes is low, but not zero.

Rain will continue into Saturday night and Sunday morning as the system exits the region. On Sunday morning we will see temperatures around 60°, with afternoon highs around 70°.

We dry briefly Sunday afternoon and throughout Monday before our next system arrives on New Year’s Eve. This system will bring more rain Monday night into Tuesday.

The big welcome story in January will be the drop in temperature. With afternoon highs reaching into the 40s and 50s and overnight lows expected to be in the 20s and 30s.
