Scattered Storms Later Today; Showers Remain Possible Tomorrow Through Sunday

FOGGY START: There is a dense fog advisory for the northern 2/3 of Alabama early this morning, otherwise the sky is mostly cloudy at daybreak with just a few isolated showers over the southeast corner of the state. Look for a mix of sun and clouds across the Deep South today with scattered showers and storms developing this afternoon.

SPC has defined a low end severe weather risk for all of Alabama; a few of the heavier storms could produce strong, gusty winds and small hail. But wind fields are fairly weak and the overall threat is low. Not everyone will see rain this afternoon; chance of any one spot seeing a shower or storm is 30-40 percent…. temperatures will reach the low to mid 80s.

TOMORROW AND THE WEEKEND: The weather will remain somewhat unsettled with a risk of showers and a few thunderstorms each day. But, understand it certainly won’t rain all day, and the sun will break out at times. Most, but not necessarily all, of the showers will come from around 2 until 11 p.m.. and while some thunder is possible we expect no severe storms. Highs will be in the 70s.

NEXT WEEK: Showers remain possible Monday and Tuesday, but the weather will be dry Wednesday through Friday as an upper ridge builds in from the south. Highs remain in the 70s Monday and Tuesday, but by the end of the week the high will be around 90 degrees for a preview of summer. See the video briefing for maps, graphics, and more details.

ON THIS DATE IN 2024: A total of 15 tornadoes touched down across North Alabama. Two were rated EF-3; one moved passed near Henagar, one west of Athens. There were a total of eight injuries; no fatalities. There were two tornadoes in South Alabama from the same event, bringing the statewide total to 17.

Look for the next video briefing here by 3:00 this afternoon… enjoy the day!
