James Spann, ABC 33/40, and Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Chief Meteorologist said that “a cold front will pass through the state Saturday night... moisture will be very limited, but it might squeeze out a sprinkle or flurry in a few spots. Measurable precipitation is not expected... then much colder air returns to the state Sunday. Despite a clearing sky, temperatures won't get past the mid-40s Sunday afternoon with a brisk north wind.”

According to the National Weather Service in Birmingham here are the projected temperatures for the Townsquare Media coverage areas. There will be a 19 to 23-degree difference between Friday and Sunday
