Nice Sunday Afternoon, Storms Possible Overnight

Overall it is not a bad day out there. We are seeing a mix of sun and clouds. There are a few light showers showing up on the radar this afternoon, but these are few and far between. Most locations will be staying dry but just note a passing shower or two will be possible the rest of today.

Temperatures this afternoon are mainly in the upper 60s and 70s for Central Alabama.

Our friends at the SPC have issued an “Enhanced” risk for severe storms today to our west. Scattered severe storms are likely from southeastern Oklahoma across central and southern Arkansas this afternoon and evening. Supercells with a few tornadoes, large hail, and damaging gusts are expected. Tornado watches are in effect in these areas.

For tonight, we will be watching this thunderstorm activity as it slides towards the east and northeast. Some of these storms will make their way into Alabama late tonight, especially for our northwestern counties especially after midnight. The latest HRRR shows storms making their way into Alabama between 3 and 4AM. However, with the better dynamics west of the state, we are not expecting severe weather in Alabama. Just don’t be surprised if you hear some rumbles of thunder overnight.

Showers and few storms will be possible to start our Monday, but by the afternoon, we should see a clearing sky with highs in the 70s
