Storms Around For Part Of Your Weekend

Hot and humid conditions continue to prevail across our area. Temps will manage lower to mid 90s until further notice. You factor in the humidity and it begins to feel more like 100 to 105. Fortunately, we continue to see a decent chance for afternoon showers and storms. A frontal boundary dips southward into North Alabama Saturday. We’re well out…

Rain Chances Increase Slightly

High pressure remains the main weather feature over us but just to our north a frontal boundary dips into the state. This boundary will enhance the risk of showers and storms across central and north Alabama Friday into Saturday. Around here it will be more of the same with scattered afternoon showers and possibly storms. Temps will continue to manage…

Nothing Unusual About This Weather Pattern

We continue in a typical summer-time weather pattern of hot and humid conditions along with isolated afternoon showers. Temps are hovering around the mid 90s for highs and that’s about average for this time of the year. High pressure along with some drier air aloft has kept the shower coverage rather isolated and this will continue through Thursday. A frontal…

Rain Chances Increase Late Week

There’s nothing unusual about the weather setup we’re experiencing at the moment. It’s what you would expect for late July. Temps hover in the 90s for highs and some receive an afternoon shower of storm. We see this playing out through at least Thursday but our rain chances will be increasing a bit Friday into Saturday. A frontal boundary to…

What You Expect For Late July

It’s typical summer time conditions around here this week. High pressure over the deep south will keep us hot and humid along with those pop up afternoon showers and storms.

The main threat will be damaging winds up to 60 mph. We could actually see two rounds of storms. One coming through earlier in the day and the…

Rising Temps Again!

The heat and humidity reminding us summer time in the deep south can be rough at times. We’re expecting mid to upper 90s for highs over the next several days. You factor in the humidity and it will feel more like 100 to 105 degrees. Some relief will come from afternoon showers and storms. We don’t see many of them…

Hot & Humid With Periods Of Rain/Storms

It’s looking hot and humid along with several rounds of showers and storms coming our way this week. Temps will manage mid 90s at times. You factor in the humidity and heat index values reach 100 to 105. Maybe a little higher 105 to 110 Wednesday and Thursday. We expect scattered showers and storms capable of heavy downpours, gusty winds,…

Hot & Humid With Fewer Storms Around

Looks like we’re heading back into a typical July weather pattern over the weekend into next week. That’s basically hot and humid with the chance for a few afternoon showers or storms. Temps will manage the lower 90s for highs. Afternoon showers and storms will knock the heat off in spots but not everyone sees them. Storms that do occur…
