Not Quite As Hot At Midday Today… But It’s Still Hot

| May 28, 2019 @ 12:02 pm

We have mainly sunny skies across much of Central Alabama as we are about to move into the 12 o’clock hour on this last Tuesday in May. We do have some fair weather cumulus clouds over the northwestern parts of the area that may be filtering out the sun somewhat, but that is only occurring for a minute or two at a time. Temperatures are currently in the mid-80s to the lower 90s across the area. Birmingham was at 88 degrees while a few locations were tied as the warm spot at 90 degrees. A few locations were tied as the cool spot at 84 degrees.

We’re going to continue to have mostly clear skies throughout the area for the remainder of the daylight hours but any clouds will start to dissipate just before sunset. Afternoon highs will be in the lower to mid-90s across the area, but we may see one or two spots briefly hit the upper 90s before we start to cool down for the evening. Skies will be mostly clear tonight with lows in the mid-60s to the lower 70s.

Wednesday will be another hot day for May underneath mostly sunny skies. No rain is expected but that news will change as we get into the end of the week as scattered showers and thunderstorms will become possible. Wednesday’s highs will be in the lower to mid-90s.

ON THIS DAY IN WEATHER HISTORY
1987 – Thunderstorms produced torrential rains in Oklahoma and northern Texas. Lake Altus, OK, was deluged with nine inches of rain. Up to eight inches drenched northern Texas, and baseball size hail was reported north of Seminole and at Knickerbocker. Ten to 13-inch rains soaked central Oklahoma the last five days of May resulting in an estimated 65 million dollars damage and forcing several thousand persons to evacuate their homes, many by boat or helicopter.
