Rain Expected Today, But Sunny Sunday in Birmingham

The National Weather Service predicts strong wind gusts approaching 40 mph for much of today, but it will subside behind a cold front coming in the late afternoon. Along with the cold front is a 70 percent chance of rain into tonight. Temperatures wil hover at around 50 degrees, but will dip to 35 degrees tonight, making freezing rain or early stages of snow a possibility. 

That doesn't necessarily bode well for patrons of the PTSA Groves High School garage sale or anyone taking in the Franklinstein Frenzy. 

The forecast calls for partly sunny skies and a high of 50 degrees. Not bad for a little fun and treats at the Franklin Cider Mill, or if you'd rather be indoors, check out Royal Opera House Cinema Series at the Birmingham 8 Theatre.
