Temperatures will struggle to get to the 60 degree mark in many communities across the region. Highs will be in the upper-50s inland and near 60 closer to the immediate beach zones. You’ll definitely need the jackets this evening if you’re headed out for trick-or-treating as temperatures will be in the 50s in many spots across the region. Cool days and cold nights are ahead through the end of the week.
TRICK-OR-TREAT FORECAST… Bundle up in the jackets tonight if you’re headed out for trick-or-treating on this Halloween Tuesday. Temperatures will be in the 50s after 6PM tonight, falling into the 40s after 9PM. No rain is in the forecast tonight. Cloudy skies will persist into the evening hours.

TROPICS: 60% CHANCE OF TROPICAL STORM FORMING IN CARIBBEAN… An area of low pressure may form in the central or western Caribbean Sea over the next 5-7 days.

MUCH COOLER TEMPS FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK… Today is the last warm day for awhile as much colder air arrives behind an advancing cold front tonight. Highs tomorrow will only be in the 60s with overnight lows in the low- to mid-30s on Wednesday and Thursday mornings.
WARM TODAY; SHARPLY COLDER TOMORROW INTO WEDNESDAY… Today will be the last warm day for awhile as much cooler, drier air is slated to move into our local area tonight into Tuesday. A strong cold front will bring in a significant thermal gradient across Alabama today. Some spots in the northwestern corner of the state near Florence and Muscle Shoals may not make it out of the 40s today. South Alabama and northwest Florida will have a high temperature in the 80s today, however. Skies will gradually become more cloudy throughout the day. Unfortunately, we do not have any rain in the forecast over the next 24 hours.
COLD FRONT CROSSES AREA THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT; NO RAIN… Colder air will push into our region starting tonight after the passage of a cold front. There is a real chance high temperatures on Tuesday will struggle to get out of the 50s across inland areas of southwest Alabama. Overnight lows by Wednesday morning will be in the low- to mid-30s.
TRICK-OR-TREAT FORECAST… If you’re headed out to take the kids trick-or-treating for Halloween on Tuesday, be sure to grab the jackets! Temperatures will be in the low- to mid-50s by 7PM tomorrow evening. Some spots farther inland may be in the 40s. No rain is expected tomorrow or tomorrow night.

TROPICS: BRIEF TROPICAL STORM MAY DEVELOP NORTH OF HISPANIOLA… There is a short window for a brief tropical depression or tropical storm to form today in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean. The National Hurricane Center indicates this system will likely drift northeast, away from land areas, today into tomorrow. Regardless of if formal development happens, this system will likely never directly affect Alabama or northwest Florida.
TROPICS: GULF REMAINS QUIET… The Gulf of Mexico remains quiet with no new tropical storms expected to form over the next 5-7 days. The 2023 Atlantic Hurricane Season will officially end on November 30.
