Idalia Nearing Landfall; Only Spotty Showers For Alabama Today
IDALIA STAYS TO THE EAST: We will mention the chance of a few spotty showers for Alabama later today, but the big rains in association with Hurricane Idalia will remain east of Alabama over North Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas through tonight. Around here we expect a mix of sun and clouds with highs in the 80s over most of the state. It will be a breezy day for the southeast counties, where places like Dothan and Ozark could see a gust to 35/40 mph at times as Idalia passes to the east.
