MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES… A few cirrus clouds are moving by our area from west to east. Otherwise, we’ve got mostly sunny skies in place with temperatures in the 50s this afternoon.
No weather issues are expected over the next 12 hours. Overnight lows will be quite chilly on Wednesday morning, in the 30s by 6AM.
Potential severe weather setup will happen later this week into Saturday across portions of the Deep South… SPC has parts of Louisiana, Mississippi, and Arkansas in their equivalent Level 2 "slight" risk valid for Friday into Saturday morning. pic.twitter.com/cljkFw58pe

SUNNY, COOL DAY; STRONG STORMS THIS WEEKEND… Sunshine is expected on this Tuesday. Temperatures are starting in the 30s and will rise into the mid-50s by the end of the day. We’ve got more clear nights and sunny days ahead, at least through Thursday. Rain chances rise toward the end of the week as our next cold front approaches from the northwest.
STRONG STORMS ON SATURDAY… Our next rain chance will come with the chance of a few stronger storms on Saturday. An area of low pressure will be moving by to our northwest, tapping into warm, unstable air that will be in place across our region by Saturday. This could potentially be a severe weather setup for parts of Alabama. It’s too early to be specific about potential hazards and placements of those hazards. Tornadoes could be one of those concerns. We’ll have more info later this evening.
I’ve got all the details for you in your Tuesday #rzw forecast video that will be available shortly in the RedZone Weather app… This is an abbreviated forecast discussion as I am on the road early this morning, headed to a school presentation. Have a great Tuesday!
☀️All sunshine on this Tuesday. Cool temperatures, however, with highs only around 53° this afternoon… Enjoy the day! pic.twitter.com/8Uj9ENx2kv

MUCH COOLER TODAY; CLEARING SKIES… Rain is on the way out and dry, cold air is on the way in. Get ready for a chilly day and cold night with overnight lows down around the freezing mark by Tuesday morning. We’ve got a streak of nice, sunny days ahead once clouds clear out later today. Our next chance of rain happens on Friday into Saturday as another cold front moves by.
TOP STORY: COLD TEMPERATURES… Now that a cold front has passed through our area, much cooler air is filtering in from our northwest. It was the cold front that was partially responsible for the rain/storms we had on Sunday evening. That front has pushed the warm, Gulf air to our south and has set the stage for calm, dry, cool weather this week. High temperatures today will struggle to hit 50° in some spots. We fall to 30-32° overnight, followed by somewhat of a warmup on Tuesday afternoon when most places will hit the mid-50s.
See all the details in your Monday #rzw forecast video… Have a great day!
Skies will continue to clear on this Monday… Temperatures won't recover that much today since a cold front has just moved by. High temps in the low-50s. Have a nice start to the post-holiday week! pic.twitter.com/KQ1MnbeCyr

STRONG STORM NEAR PENSACOLA BEACH… Lots of lightning is being observed in the thunderstorms happening near Gulf Breeze, Pensacola Beach, Navarre, and NAS Pensacola. These storms are well under severe limits, but plenty of lightning is happening.
Not what we need for a heavily affected hurricane zone… ⛈ https://t.co/TaIEi1pZI9

LOW-END SEVERE RISK CONTINUES OVER NEXT FEW HOURS… Strong thunderstorms are happening across coastal stretches of Alabama and northwest Florida on this Sunday evening. At the time this video is being produced (5:35PM), very heavy rain, thunder, and lightning are happening near Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, Perdido Key, Foley, Allentown, Whiting Field, Harold, Crestview, Milligan, and Deerland.
WHAT TO EXPECT… This batch of storms currently moving across the southern half of our local area will continue to push eastward. At this time, no other convection seems to be firing over west Alabama or southeast Mississippi. This means we may be able to give an “all clear” as early as 8PM. If any severe weather does happen, it will likely be brief and highly isolated. A brief, spin-up tornado is still possible, but the chance seems to be lessening somewhat.
I’ll have further updates this evening here in the RedZone Weather app (redzoneweather.com/app is the link for the free download). If tornado warning coverage becomes necessary, we will stream that live across our social platforms and in the app. Have a good evening!
