Mainly Sunny Skies & Warming Up At Midday

At 11:25 am, we have a clean sweep on radar at this point across Central Alabama with the closest thunderstorm activity pushing south-southeastward through much of west and central Mississippi. As a matter of fact, we have very little in the way of clouds across our skies. Temperatures are in the lower 80s to right at 90 degrees from north to south across the area. Birmingham is at 88 degrees, while several locations are tied at 82 degrees as the cool spots. Montgomery is currently at 90 degrees as the hot spot.

Clouds are expected to build somewhat during the day making the skies partly cloudy, and with the heating of the day, we should start to see those scattered showers and thunderstorms pop up. The higher chances of those will be over the western half of the area, while there will be a very small chance over the far eastern locations. Afternoon highs will be in the upper 80s to the lower 90s. We could continue to see a few lingering showers and thunderstorms during the evening and late night hours, but those will be dissipating in coverage and should eventually be gone before we cross over the midnight hour. Higher chances will be in the southwestern parts of the area. Lows will be in the upper 60s to the lower 70s.

Not expecting a big change in the forecast for Saturday as we’ll continue to have hot and humid conditions across Central Alabama. A good bit of sun early, but will become partly cloudy by the afternoon with a chance of those scattered summertime showers and thunderstorms. Highs will once again be in the upper 80s to the lower 90s.

TROPICS: A quiet Atlantic Hurricane Season continues for the next five days as no tropical cyclones are expected to form.
