SCATTERED STORMS ACROSS THE REGION… Numerous small showers and thunderstorms are happening across south Alabama and northwest Florida. At the moment, the heaviest rain is happening near Milligan, Crestview, and Tunnel Springs.
Don’t be surprised to see heavy downpours or rain near your location before the end of the day!
SCATTERED STORMS MOVING EAST… Heavy downpours of rain continue to happen in portions of Monroe, Escambia (FL), Santa Rosa, Covington, and Okaloosa counties. The storms in northwest Florida near Pace, Niceville, and Crestview are producing quite a bit of heavy rain and lightning.
More thunderstorms will continue to pop up over the next few hours. Be ready for scattered downpours of rain!
HEAVY RAIN NEAR MOLINO; SCATTERED STORMS… Two distinct areas of scattered showers and thunderstorms have bubbled up early on this Tuesday afternoon. One area of scattered storms is over portions of Monroe and Clarke counties. These storms (near Hybart, Fulton, and Scyrene) are pushing eastward. The other area of storms extends from Coffee, Geneva, and Covington counties back down to southern Baldwin County. These storms are also drifting east.
Most spots across our area should have rainfall at some point before the end of the day. Widespread severe weather is not anticipated, but a few of the storms could ramp up to produce gusty winds, especially along and east of I-65.

SCATTERED STORMS FIRING UP… The “daily deluge” of showers and thunderstorms is rapidly firing up across south Alabama and northwest Florida on this Tuesday afternoon. We get a break from the showers and storms on Wednesday and Thursday, but not before most of us have rain before the end of the day today. Showers are producing heavy rain near Gulf Breeze, Pensacola Beach, Jackson, Munson, Libertyville, and Niceville as of 12:07PM.
Be ready for scattered downpours of heavy rain this afternoon into this evening! Drier air will start to move in later this evening.
