Sunday won’t be much better as humidity levels will begin to rise with a weak southerly flow will startup. That extra moisture will allow for the development of a few isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms over the southeastern parts of the area mainly along and south of the I-85 corridor. The rest of Central Alabama will remain mostly sunny and hot. Highs will be in the lower 90s to just over 100 degrees.
