There are a lot of variables beyond this one, but you can bet when the Arctic Oscillation Index is this far negative in the middle of winter, odds are pretty good of significant cold air intrusions.
Next few weeks have the potential to be QUITE cold! pic.twitter.com/KRwMwDpJj0

⛈️Good news and bad news. The good news is we have trended away from any wintery precip for our area. The bad news is we went too far and now we could see a round of strong to possibly severe storms Sunday afternoon capable of damaging winds and possibly a tornado or two. pic.twitter.com/z0xyquD2aA

VERY COLD AIR COMING NEXT WEEK… Rain chances rise tomorrow P.M. into Sunday. Isolated thunderstorms may become possible on Sunday, potentially with a very low-end risk of a few stronger storms.
Cold, dry air arrives Sunday night. The upcoming week is gong to be C-O-L-D! Several nights with below freezing temperatures next week.
INCREASING RAIN CHANCES TOMORROW… Isolated rain showers may happen across parts of south Alabama and northwest Florida on this Friday. Clouds will persist throughout the day.
High temperatures will be in the upper 60s today, thankfully keeping us way too warm for any ice issues!
Rain chances rise on Saturday into Sunday ahead of very cold, dry air arriving Sunday night.
