Stormy Pattern Continues This Week

Tonight: As a few disturbances continue to drift through the region over the next several hours, more showers and perhaps a rumble of thunder are possible overnight, mainly for the southern half of the area between midnight and 6 AM Sunday. Low temperatures will drop into the lower to middle 70s.

Tomorrow: Most of us remain dry heading into Sunday morning but additional showers and storms are likely heading into the afternoon and evening hours. There is plenty of rich, tropical moisture across our area, so any storms that do form will contain pockets of extremely heavy rainfall. Keep an eye on radar if you plan to be outdoors on Sunday. High temperatures will be in the middle 80s. 

Looking Ahead: Central Alabama will continue to remain wedged in between a trough and ridge, keeping the southwesterly flow and stormy weather in place for the next week. Each day will be nearly a rinse and repeat with high temperatures in the middle/upper 80s accompanied with scattered showers and storms then a few batches of steady rain from time to time. This is mostly what we have seen over the weekend so far, and expect this to continue into the new week. 

Embedded within this southwesterly flow of tropical air, a few disturbances will pass through and help increase the coverage of rain/storms occasionally. It appears a couple of those periods may be on Thursday of this coming week. Therefore, rain chances slightly increase to 70% during that time but begin to fall back to around 30% by next Friday and Saturday. Long-range guidance suggests a ridge (associated with hotter/drier weather) tries to build back over the Southeast US by next weekend, which would steadily increase our temperatures back to the lower 90s and lower rain chances.
