Comfortable At Midday In Central Alabama, But The Muggies Return Tomorrow

ENJOY TODAY WHILE YOU CAN… HUMIDITY LEVELS RISE TOMORROW
As we approach the midday hour across Central Alabama, I do not believe that you could complain about the weather, except that it’s a work day. The sun is out in full force across the area, with just a few small cumulus floating overhead in the southern portions of the area. All of Central Alabama is dry as of now, with the only rain showing up down in Mobile and Baldwin counties.

TEMPERATURES AT 11:30AM
Current temperatures across Central Alabama are in the 80s at this point. The warm spot is currently Eufaula at 87 degrees, while the cool spot of Gadsden is sitting at 80 degrees.

CLIMATE & HISTORICAL RECORDS FOR JUNE 28TH
The normal high for the date is 89 degrees, while the normal low is 68 degrees. The record high of 104 degrees was set back in 1931, while the record low of 53 degrees was set back in 1968.

FOR THE REST OF YOUR LAST “HUMP DAY” OF JUNE
For the rest of the afternoon hours, skies will stay generally sunny mainly north of the I-20 corridor, but clouds will build in from the south for locations south of that. Afternoon highs will be in the mid to upper 80s throughout Central Alabama. The latest run of the HRRR model is hinting that showers and storms will develop during the next few hours in the extreme southern part of the state and move northward. Locations such as Demopolis, Fort Deposit, Troy, and Eufaula may see rain before midnight. Tonight’s lows will be in the upper 60s to the lower 70s.

THE TYPICAL ALABAMA SUMMERTIME PATTERN RETURNS ON THURSDAY
Scattered showers and thunderstorms, mainly during the afternoon and evening hours, make a return to our forecast as a deep layer of moisture expands from the south to cover Central Alabama. We’ll have more clouds than sun throughout the day when it is not raining, and tomorrow will not be an all day wash out. Afternoon highs will be cooler, down into the lower to mid 80s. Odds for any one location getting rain is over 3 in 5, or 60%.
