Chance Of Showers

Hot and dry across the region but moisture is about to creep back in here and we bring back the chance for scattered showers and storms this weekend. High pressure slides east and southerly winds send gulf moisture our way. This will be the fuel for showers and t-storms over the next several days. Temperatures will start out in the…

Hot & Mainly Dry

High pressure is keeping it clear and dry around here. Looks like we finish out the work week with abundant sunshine along with high temps in the low to mid 90s. Dry air remains in place for now but moisture will be increasing and that leads to some rain activity over the up coming weekend. Scattered showers and t-storms will…

Mainly Hot & Dry

We’re facing several days of sunny and mainly dry conditions around here. High pressure will maintain a mostly sunny sky along with temps warming into the lower 90s for highs. An old frontal boundary to our south will be the focal point for some shower/t-storm activity but we think most spots across central Alabama continue dry through the work week….

A Mainly Dry Weather Pattern

Much drier air has made its way into the deep south. This will make it feel comfortable overnight into early Tuesday. It appears now that a weak disturbance will make a run at our area Tuesday. We expect skies to cloud up a bit and a few showers to pass through the region. This system departs and its back to…

Dry and Milder Weather Pattern Ahead

A frontal boundary will sweep through our area and usher in a dry and milder air mass for a few days. Mornings will start out clear and comfortable with temps in the mid 60s through Wednesday. Afternoons warm into the upper 80s but the air will be less humid and that should make it feel a lot better than the…

Hot & Humid With Storms

Hot and humid with scat’d showers and t-storms throughout our weekend. Numerous rounds of storms will work through the area at times. Some of the storms will be strong and possibly severe. The main threats will be gusty winds, heavy rainfall, frequent lightning, and hail. The heat cranks up each day with highs in the upper 80s to lower 90s….

Hot & Humid !

It’s back to hot and humid conditions going into the upcoming weekend. Temps will start out in the lower 70s and climb into the lower 90s for afternoon hours. A few showers/t-storms will be possible Friday but we see a better chance for storm activity over the weekend. A frontal boundary will be moving into the area. A few strong…

Turning Hot & Humid

The heavy rain event has departed and now we’re looking at a little quieter weather pattern for a few days. Scattered showers and t-storms will still be developing but we expect fewer in number than what we’ve experienced lately. It’s going to be a typical hot and humid setup with those daily afternoon pop up showers and t-storms. Temperatures will…

Heating Up Again !

Alberto has moved well north of our area but it’s influence on our weather hasn’t left us. Winds on the backside of the system are helping generate scattered showers and t-storms. These are like tropical downpours and produce brief heavy rain, lightning, and gusty winds. As Alberto moves farther north of us, its impact will lessen and we go back…

Alberto Moving Our Way

You can expect tropical downpours this evening into the overnight ours. Our greatest concern with this tropical system will be the heavy rain. Rainfall potential of 3 to 6 inches with a few spots a littler higher. You will need to be very mindful of those areas prone to flooding. Remember to turn around don’t drown! Another threat will be…
