Isaias brings heavy rain, strong wind, tornado risk this weekend

The national hurricane center forecasts Isaias to strengthen into a hurricane, with winds near 105 mph Friday evening. The storm nears the MS/AL/NW FL coast Friday night, then moves inland near the MS/AL state line or through southwest Alabama through Saturday morning.

Feeling summer-like Thursday, rain returns through this weekend

Higher humidity results in a summer-like feel to Thursday afternoon, with high temperatures in the low 90s and slightly higher heat indices. However, increased humidity may also result in at least a few stray showers or storms mainly in far south Alabama through the early evening.
