Wednesday began on a mainly sunny note once more for central and south Alabama. Temperatures warmed quickly through midday as a result, with many spots near 90° by 11AM. Wednesday afternoon looks hot, just not quite as hot as Monday and Tuesday.
Tuesday morning was abundantly sunny across south Alabama. In response, temperatures surged from the mid 70s around sunrise into the low 90s by midday. Also, the late-August humidity persists, so heat indices were already around 100° by 11AM. Expect those values between 100 and 105° during the afternoon.
It was a sunny and dry Monday morning across central and south Alabama. Our area was rain-free through midday too, and that may be the case for virtually all of our area through the afternoon.
It was a hot and humid Friday across central and south Alabama. However, a mostly cloudy sky coupled with scattered showers and storms held high temperatures to the upper 80s and low 90s. Showers and storms remain scattered about our area this evening with a mostly cloudy sky otherwise.
Thursday began warm and humid with plenty of sunshine, though clouds quickly increased. Showers and storms dotted the radar, especially in west Alabama prior to midday. Showers and storms become more widely scattered to potentially numerous this afternoon.
Wednesday features an unchanged weather pattern. Our area was mainly dry through midday, at which point isolated but locally heavy downpours began to form. They become more numerous across our area during the afternoon and early evening. Rain helps us out today, because the other side of the weather story is another heat advisory.
Heat, humidity, and afternoon showers and storms are the story Tuesday. A heat advisory continues until 9PM across much of our area. The heat index could be as high as 107° this afternoon. Our saving grace comes in the form of cooling showers and storms. They could become fairly widely scattered through the course of the afternoon or early evening.
Typical August heat and humidity returned in full Monday. And after a mainly dry weekend, expect an elevated chance for rain each day this week. Showers and storms started to fire prior to noon, and they become more widely scattered throughout the afternoon.
For a third day in a row, Montgomery failed to reach 90°. Can’t say that too often in early August. Temperatures topped out in the upper 80s to low 90s in the rest of our area.
Thursday began on a nice note for central and south Alabama. Sure, it was a fairly warm and somewhat humid morning, but there was plenty of sunshine. Outside of a couple stray, isolated, and brief showers in west Alabama at midday, there wasn’t much going on through the morning.
