Weekend Warm Up, Rain Chance on Sunday, 60s for Some Next Week?

Saturday Morning Update

January 25, 2025

Brian Davis,

THE WEEKEND:

The warmest weather in over a week will be returning for the upcoming weekend. Highs will reach the upper 40s to low 50s for both Saturday and Sunday. Today will be our nicest day of the weekend with mostly sunny skies and highs in the lower 50s.

Clouds will increase into Saturday evening and we will see cloudy skies for most of the day on Sunday. Cold rain showers will move in on Sunday and although most of us who actually see the showers will only see rain, we cannot yet rule out a brief wintry mix or a few snow flurries depending on how early the system shows up on Sunday and how late it lasts Sunday night into Monday morning.

Storms are not expected with this round of cold rain showers that will mostly impact our southern counties that border Mississippi.

Saturday and Sunday night lows will also determine if we only see rain or any sort of Winter precipitation. As of now, both nights lows are forecast down to the low to mid 30s, just above freezing. It will be a close call so we will be monitoring the forecast for the weekend lows as the week goes on. The winds are forecast to come out of the southwest on Saturday and out of the north for the most part on Sunday behind the front.

NEXT WEEK:

We have a chance to hit 60° for the first time in awhile on Tuesday and Wednesday but Monday highs will only make it up to around 60°. We will see a mostly sunny day on Monday and Tuesday but clouds will return on Wednesday and so will the chance for some showers. Like on Sunday, the best chance to see the rain on Wednesday will be in our southern counties and we are not expecting much. We will be lucky for anyone to see over 1/4″ of rain from the low pressure system that is forecast to pass to the south of us. Since the system is coming from the west, we are not expecting temperatures to fall off much into Thursday of Friday. Thursday looks dry as of now, but the best shot for rain and maybe some storms in the forecast will come in next Friday evening and stick around into Saturday. It will be the main forecast in the forecast as we get going into next week!

Most of the rain on Sunday will be south of I-40 and with two possible rounds. One round will be possible around sunrise and another round late tomorrow night. For most areas it will mainly be a cloudy sky event, but a few will see some rain. Stay with the StormTeam over the weekend for the latest on your weather.
