Showers In The East, Dry In The West… It’s Your Midday Nowcast For Central Alabama

Conditions At 12:30 PM Across Central Alabama

A good bit of shower activity has popped up within the last 60-90 minutes across the eastern half of Central Alabama, as we can see showers stretching from the extreme northern parts of the area, to the extreme southern parts. The western half of the area is virtually dry at this point. All of the shower activity is moving slowly to the southwest. Temperatures are in the lower to mid-80s, with Birmingham siting at 82 degrees. We have a mix of sun and clouds and that is one reason for the temperatures being held back a little at midday.

Weather For The Rest Of Your Tuesday
It is pretty much a carbon copy of my forecast for Monday… We’ll continue to have hot conditions for this afternoon, with highs reaching the upper 80s to the lower 90s. Skies will be partly to mostly cloudy with the best chance for scattered to numerous shower and thunderstorm activity being east of a line from Warrior (Jefferson Co.) to Brent (Bibb Co.) to Orrville (Dallas Co.). East of that line, the highest chances will be closest to the Georgia state line and slightly decreasing as you go west. West of that line, there will be a small risk for a few isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms. Through the evening and overnight hours, shower and storm chances will diminish as we approach the late night hours, but a stray shower or two may linger for a little while after midnight, especially over the eastern half of the area. Lows will be in the upper 60s to the lower 70s.
