Periods Of Rain Today; Dry Air Arrives Tomorrow

| June 6, 2017 @ 6:35 am

SOGGY AIR STILL HANGS OVER ALABAMA: A good bit of rain is seen across Alabama on radar this morning as a pure tropical airmass remains parked over the state…

We will maintain a good chance of occasional showers and storms statewide today with a mostly cloudy sky and a high in the 77-80 degree range. Additional rain amounts of 1/2 to 1 inch are likely, making the drought seem like a distant memory.

But, changes begin tonight a a cold front pushes southward into Alabama, pulling dry air in from the north. By 9:00… most all of the showers should be south of I-20.

TOMORROW THROUGH FRIDAY: Dry, continental air settles into the state, and will give us a good chance to dry out. We are forecasting sunny days, lower humidity, and fair cool nights on these three days. Highs in the 80s; a good chance we drop into the 50s early Thursday and Friday morning.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Dry air holds, so we will bold and forecast shower-free weather Saturday and Sunday with afternoon temperatures creeping up into the upper 80s. Mostly sunny days, fair nights.

NEXT WEEK: Moisture levels rise Monday, and we will bring back the chance of “scattered, mostly afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms” with a high in the mid 80s. After that, the weather looks pretty routine for the rest of the week with partly sunny days and that risk of afternoon storms in a few spots. Highs stay in the 80s. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.

TROPICS: The Atlantic basin is quiet, and tropical storm formation is not expected through the week.
