It was a mostly overcast day, periods of light rain in Cullman with a High of 73 and a Low of 66. And I said I didn't have the energy to do a forecast tonight, but I decided since I'm already up and on the computer, why not . . . 

We've still got a weak front stalled around the corner of Northwest Alabama, where it meets Mississippi and Tennessee. And Hurricane Rafael has come up through Cuba and is now entering the Southeastern Gulf of Mexico. 



Its forecast track has shifted considerably, so that now most peeps be thinking it goes about where the European global model has wanted to take it all along. And it is already weakening slightly after passing through Western Cuba. It is expected to weaken to a tropical storm and then maybe even fizzle out before it would get to Mexico in roughly another week. 

Like I said, you have to watch these things for throwing curveballs. At least this one is in our favor locally, like the Gulf Coast can relax. 

It'll be partly cloudy tomorrow, not much chance of rain except maybe something isolated in the morning, maybe some fog in the morning too. High near 78-80 range, so I guess 79 is a good guess. Basically the same thing Friday with a High in the upper 70's and a Low in the lower 60's. 

Then we have another front coming through this weekend. 

Similar weather for Saturday except widely scattered rain is possible, about a 30% chance. Then Sunday that ramps up to 40%, High in lower 70's, Low in lower 60's. 

Any showers that hang around for Veterans Day should stay pretty isolated, about a 20% chance of rain, High in the mid-70's and Low in mid-maybe-upper-50's. 

Tuesday looks sunny, High in mid-70's, Low in lower 50's. 

For now will only introduce a 20% chance of rain for next Wednesday ahead of yet another front. This is active time of year. 

Just a reminder about NWS Nashville's Weather101 classes.
