SPOTTY STORMS TODAY AND TUESDAY; HIGHER RAIN CHANCES WEDNESDAY… Scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible on this Monday across south Alabama and northwest Florida. It will not rain all day across the region but we will have a few pop-up showers and thunderstorms being possible throughout the day. Widespread severe storms seem unlikely today. Any thunderstorms that last longer than an hour or so could pose a risk of flash flooding as the ground is still highly saturated in many communities due to the prolific rainfall we had last week. Afternoon high temperatures will be a bit hotter than the last few days. Most spots will top out in the low 90s today. Higher rain chances are slated to happen on Wednesday and Thursday with lower rain chances expected for the upcoming weekend.
RAIN & STORMS LIKELY AT TIMES WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY… The pattern today and in the days ahead will support multiple complexes of thunderstorms that happen to our west and northwest that could ultimately move into our local area. For now, it appears the highest rain chances this week will happen on Wednesday and Thursday. Scattered to numerous thunderstorms will be possible. High temperatures will be in the low 90s on Wednesday and Thursday.
LOWER RAIN CHANCES THIS WEEKEND… A ridge of high pressure will build in to the local area this weekend, suggesting the coverage of scattered showers and thunderstorms will lessen considerably. That doesn’t mean a few spots won’t have rain, but the overall coverage of rain and storms will be much less than the pattern we have been in over the last few weeks. High temperatures will be in the low 90s this weekend with morning lows in the low to mid 70s.
TROPICAL UPDATE: ATLANTIC BASIN QUIET, FOR NOW… The Gulf, Caribbean Sea, and Atlantic Ocean remain quiet with no tropical storms expected to form over the next 5-7 days. The climatological peak of the Atlantic Hurricane Season happens in mid-September. Tropical Storm Arthur happened last week. The next names on the 2026 tropical/hurricane naming list are Bertha, Cristobal, Dolly, Edouard, Fay, Gonzalo, Hanna, Isaias, Josephine, and Kyle.
