Gateswood, AL Weather Outlook

Our radar is based off of US NEXRAD and Canadian weather radar sites through the quality controlled MRMS system. It compiles various sources for radar data and filters out erroneous returns such as sun spikes and ground clutter. We then colorize the precipitation based on our methods for determining precipitation type. Rain is in shades of green, mixed precipitation and freezing rain in shades of pink and snow is in shades of blue.

Watches and warnings are overlaid on the map, but this is currently in beta testing and should not be used for the protection of life or property.

This surface map is from the HRRR computer model. It is a 1-hour forecast, updated hourly, which is a good estimate of the current surface conditions. This map shows the current high and low pressure centers, pressure isobar contours, wind streamlines and thickness contours. It also shows the currently depicted preciptiation estimates, although this should not be a substitute for actual live radar. The purple dashed contour is the 5400m thickness line, which is often a good proxy for the rain/snow line.

This is the latest surface temperatures as depicted by the HRRR computer model, updated hourly. Although these are not actual observations, this model is a very good representation of current conditions as it factors in observations, terrain and physics to give you more detailed temperatures in areas that do not have reporting weather stations. For the latest reports at specific locations, like in Gateswood, AL please see our current conditions data on the left and right side of this page, or go to our current conditions page.

This is a forecast of the amount of precipitation expected over the next 24 hours from the HRRR weather forecast model. This is only one forecast depiction, and you should check other models to get a better idea of what may happen. You can view this and other models in more detail on our main weather forecast maps page. There, you will also be able to look at forecasts beyond just 24 hours and look at forecasts out to as far as 16 days.
