HOT SEPTEMBER AFTERNOON: Temperatures are generally in the 89-94 degree range across Alabama this afternoon; there are few small isolated showers over the Tennessee Valley, but most of the state is dry. Tonight will be generally fair with a low between 68 and 74 degrees.
EYES ON THE GULF: Alabama’s weather will be mostly dry today with a high in the low 90s. Heat levels won’t change much tomorrow, but a few strong storms are possible over the Tennessee Valley of North Alabama, where SPC has defined a “marginal risk” (level 1/5) of severe thunderstorms.
Today through Sunday, little change in the day to day forecast with plenty of sunshine and very warm temperatures as highs will be in the upper 80s and lower 90s expected.
Afternoon temperatures are in the 90s today, and we will again mention scattered afternoon showers and storms, but most locations will remain dry. Rain chances are in the 25-45% range.
SCATTERED AFTERNOON STORMS: We have some pretty routine late summer weather for Alabama through the holiday weekend. Partly sunny days with random, scattered, mostly afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms. Most of the storms will come from about 1:00 until 10:00 p.m…. the chance of any spot seeing rain is 20-30 percent today, and 40-50 percent tomorrow through Monday.
RADAR CHECK: We have the classic case of random, scattered showers and thunderstorms across Alabama this afternoon. They are drifting slowly to the west/northwest, and some are producing heavy rain and gusty winds. But, for most of the state, it is simply another hot and dry day with temperatures in the 90s. Scattered showers and storms end after sunset; lows will be in the 70s early tomorrow.
Afternoon temperatures will remain in the 90s today and tomorrow, but we will mention some risk of isolated afternoon showers or storms both days.
CLASSIC LATE SUMMER WEATHER: Humidity levels are creeping up across Alabama, and with the increased moisture we will deal with the usual case of random, scattered showers and thunderstorms during the afternoon and evening hours on a daily basis through the Labor Day weekend.
RADAR CHECK: Small, isolated showers and thunderstorms are across Alabama this afternoon, but most of the state is dry with temperatures mostly in the mid to upper 90s. Showers will end this evening; tonight will be fair with a low mostly in the low to mid 70s.
Highs remain in the upper 90s and low 100s across Alabama today as we remain under a strong upper ridge and the weather is generally dry.
HOT LATE SUMMER WEATHER: Highs will remain in the 90s across Alabama through the rest of the week with partly sunny days and fair nights. Isolated showers and storms are possible over South Alabama this afternoon, and then statewide tomorrow and Friday.
HOT AUGUST WEATHER: Temperatures are in the 90 across Alabama this afternoon with a mostly sunny sky. A few isolated showers are over the Baldwin County and into the Florida Panhandle; those will dissipate after dark. Tonight will be mostly fair with a low in the 68-74 degree range.
Highs will be in the upper 90s and low 100s across Alabama today and tomorrow as we remain under a strong upper ridge. The weather will be generally dry both days.
HOT: Highs will remain in the 90s across Alabama through Friday as hot late summer weather continues. Any showers today and tomorrow should be confined to the far southern counties of the state, and even there most places will stay dry.
