TRUSSVILLEE — The weather theme this week could be ‘one door closes and another door opens.’
While what appeared to be an opportunity for a wintry mix of weather on Wednesday night has diminished, another opportunity for snow has emerged for the weekend.
According to the National Weather Service in Birmingham, there is a 50 percent chance of rain Tuesday night after 7 p.m., with chances increasing to 100 percent on Wednesday. As the rain moves out, temperatures will plunge back into the 30s.
Thursday, Friday and Saturday will be mostly sunny with highs in the 40s.
Rain chances return Saturday with a 20 percent chance of snow showers late Saturday and a 20 percent chance of snow showers in the early morning hours of Sunday.
As always, precipitation and cold air have to come together at just the right time to get snow in Alabama, so we’ll continue to monitor this system as the week goes on.
