ISOLATED STORMS INLAND… Heavy downpours of rain are happening near Vredenburgh and Buena Vista in northern Monroe County, near the Wilcox County line.
Rain is also happening near Fulton, Dickinson, Sandflat, and Chilton in Clarke County, AL.
A small shower has also developed in the last few minutes near Vocation, Range, and Repton.
Isolated showers and storms will continue to be possible over the next few hours.
SPOTTY SHOWERS PUSHING NORTHEAST… Most of the local area remains dry but a few highly isolated showers and thunderstorms are moving northeast in parts of Monroe, Conecuh, Clarke, and Washington counties in southwest Alabama. Downpours are happening near Peterman, Tunnel Springs, Toddtown, Walker Springs, Waterville, Jackson, Leroy, and St. Stephens.
A few more pop-up showers and thunderstorms will be possible over the next several hours.
Scattered sprinkles and showers continue to move northwest across inland areas of southwest Alabama this afternoon.
There is no severe weather threat today locally but you may hear some rumbles of thunder at times. ⛈️ pic.twitter.com/BeAGafMKYN

As the first plot shows, ECMWF has limited accuracy predicting hurricane season activity, but a historically high forecast says something about the favorable oceanic setup driving elevated predictions for this year. Odds favor a very active season. https://t.co/J1fyVJ8041
