THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Not much change Saturday; a good supply of sunshine with only isolated afternoon showers… the high will be in the low 90s. Moisture levels increase Sunday with scattered showers and thunderstorms becoming more numerous; the high Sunday will be in the 87-90 degree range.

NEXT WEEK: The week looks a bit unsettled for now with scattered to numerous showers and storms possible as another upper trough sets up west of Alabama.
