Scattered To Numerous Showers/Storms Tomorrow and Friday

RADAR CHECK: Large areas of rain along with a few strong thunderstorms continue across Alabama this afternoon. Flooding is possible with the heavier storms thanks to very high precipitable water values. Temperatures are only in the 70s and 80s across the state thanks to clouds and rain. Showers will remain possible through the night.

The weather won’t change much tomorrow and Friday… more clouds than sun with scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms both days. Highs will be generally in the low to mid 80s.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Showers and storms remain possible Saturday and Sunday, but they should be a little fewer in number as the upper ridge begins to rebuild. Most (but not all) of the showers will come from noon to midnight, and the chance of any one spot seeing rain both days is 50-60 percent. With a mix of sun and clouds highs will be in the upper 80s for most places.

NEXT WEEK: A fairly typical summer pattern is setting up for next week, with partly sunny, humid days and “scattered, mostly afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms” around on a daily basis. Highs will be close to 90 for the first half of the week, followed by low 90s Thursday and Friday. See the video briefing for maps, graphics, and more details.

TROPICS: The Atlantic basin remains very calm, and tropical storm formation is not expected for the rest of July.

ON THIS DATE IN 1930: An estimated, F5 tornado tore through Montello, Veneto, and Friuli in Italy. The tornado killed 23 people along its 50 miles path.

ON THIS DATE IN 1952: The temperature at Louisville, Georgia soared to 112 degrees to establish a state record.

Look for the next video update here by 6:00 a.m. tomorrow…
