HIGHS IN THE 90s TODAY AND IN THE DAYS AHEAD; DRY PATTERN KICKS OFF… High temperatures will be in the low 90s in many communities across south Alabama and northwest Florida on this Thursday. Skies will become mostly sunny this afternoon into this evening. We’re entering into a dry pattern over the next few days. Our next chance of rain happens on Sunday, but even then, the chance of rain is rather low.
HOT TEMPS THROUGH THE WEEKEND… Our local weather pattern is being heavily influenced by a ridge of high pressure to our south that will keep our region mostly dry and hot through the weekend. High temperatures will be in the low 90s today with low to mid 90s likely on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
TROPICS CURRENTLY QUIET… Today is May 15, meaning the National Hurricane Center will begin routine issuance of the Tropical Weather Outlook. This product is issued four times per day and is available at hurricanes.gov. Coinciding with the resumption of the Tropical Weather Outlook, you can find at least one paragraph every day until the end of hurricane season in my morning video text discussion. Right now, the tropics are quiet with no named storms expected to develop over the next 5-7 days. Sometimes, preseason storms happen, but we have no data to support that happening at this point during the next couple of weeks ahead of hurricane season officially beginning on June 1.
APP… If you haven’t already, be sure to download the free RedZone Weather app to keep up with all the latest information on the world of weather in south Alabama and northwest Florida. redzoneweather.com/app is the link for the free download. Once you have the app downloaded to your iOS or Android device, be sure to visit the Alerts tab (lower right corner) and tap the Alert Settings button to customize the alerts you would like to receive straight from me.
