There are hardly any people on the face of the planet that I enjoy listening to and learning from more than @DrLauraMyers. Thank you to @NWSMobile for hosting their annual Tropical/Hurricane Workshop for the weather enterprise in our local area. Always so helpful.

HOT TEMPS AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON; SHOWERS POSSIBLE THIS WEEKEND… More sunshine and more heat are ahead on this Wednesday and through Friday ahead of rain returning to our forecast this weekend. Not everyone will have rain during the upcoming Memorial Day weekend, but some communities inevitably will see a few showers. High temperatures today will be in the low- to mid-90s across the region. Temperatures will remain elevated into the weekend with highs likely to be near the 90 degree mark. Right now, there are no signs of any organized severe weather events or organized tropical events locally anytime over the next 7-10 days. A few more Wednesday morning forecast details are below.
HOT AND DRY THROUGH FRIDAY…. No rain is expected today, tomorrow, or Friday. Plenty of sunshine, high UV indices, and a few passing cumulus clouds will be what you can expect through Friday. High temperatures are slated to be in the low-90s with morning lows in the mid- to upper-60s.
FEW SHOWERS & STORMS POSSIBLE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY… A few showers and perhaps a few thunderstorms will become possible this weekend as a big ridge of high pressure ever so slightly starts to break down. Rain could be heavy in localized areas, but the good news is this will not be an “all day washout” event. Showers and storms are expected to remain quite scattered in nature. Highs this weekend into early next week will remain near the 90 degree mark.
TROPICS REMAIN QUIET… No tropical storms are expected to develop in the north Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, or the Gulf of Mexico over the next 5-7 days. Hurricane season for the Atlantic Basin officially kicks off on Tuesday, June 1.
APP… Many updates will be posted throughout the day in the RedZone Weather app. redzoneweather.com/app is the link for the free download. Be sure to visit the Alerts tab (bottom right corner) and tap the large, yellow “Alert Settings” button to customize the alerts you’d like to receive from me. If you like a lot of info, be sure to toggle ON Low-Level Alerts.

Only certain areas can see the lunar eclipse, but we all can observe the year's biggest and brightest full Moon (weather permitting).
This full Moon is the closest of the year, about 28 Earth diameters away. On average, the Moon is 30 Earths away. https://t.co/jqvrRCjcsM pic.twitter.com/mqQg6K28Sa

MOSTLY SUNNY TODAY; HOT DAYS AHEAD… Our streak of rain-free days is set to continue on this Tuesday. High temperatures will be in the low-90s again today. Temperatures will creep upward tomorrow and there is a real chance most locales will be in the mid-90s by the afternoon hours of Wednesday and Thursday. Rain chances are slated to remain low, albeit not entirely zero, this weekend. A few more Tuesday morning forecast details are below.
PATTERN SET TO CONTINUE: HOT TEMPS & SUNSHINE… No real forecast changes are needed through at least Friday. Plenty of sunshine is ahead today and over the next few days with high temperatures expected to be in the low- to mid-90s. Overnight lows will be in the mid- to upper-60s. No rain is expected through Friday. The UV index will be quite high each day, meaning the time it takes for all of us to sunburn is not long at all. Keep the sunscreen handy!
LOW RAIN CHANCES FOR MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND… High temperatures will continue to be right around the 90 degree mark this weekend with low-end rain chances. Odds are pretty low that we will have an organized rain event, but there could be a few spotty showers and maybe a few thunderstorms each day. Storms should remain widely spaced and most locales will remain dry.
TROPICS QUIET… No tropical storms are expected to form in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea, or Atlantic Ocean over the next 5-7 days. Hurricane season officially kicks off in the Atlantic Basin 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 large, yellow Alert Settings button to customize the alerts you would like to receive straight from me.
