It’s going to feel more like January than October across Alabama for the next two days.

High temperatures will only make it into the 50s across most of Alabama today as an arctic airmass takes hold across the state.

There are some freeze warnings in effect through part of Tuesday morning, and more will go into effect tonight. The Alabama counties in purple will be under freeze warnings tonight:

But there’s a chilly day to get through first. Here are the forecast high temperatures for Tuesday:

In fact, it may be cool enough today to set record low high temperatures, according to forecasters.

More records could fall overnight — from Tuesday night into Wednesday morning — and freeze warnings will be in effect for a large part of the state. (The forecast for Tuesday night into Wednesday morning is at the top of this post.)

More cold-for-October temperatures are in store for Wednesday and Wednesday night, and more record low temperatures will be possible, according to forecasters.
