Following up that heat map, I also did a quick tornado warning count per U.S. county for 2021. Our current leader is Marengo County in SW AL at 22 warnings from a few overlapping events. A busy spring so far for @NWSBirmingham and @NWSMobile. #ALwx https://t.co/ECiSExqJwr
A “BLACKBERRY WINTER” INDEED… Get ready for a late season cool snap. Overnight lows on Wednesday night into Thursday night are projected to be near 40 degrees in many spots locally. Upper-30s are not out of the question for inland stretches of south Alabama, particularly in areas north of U.S. Highway 84. Quiet, cool weather is ahead for Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday with only a few passing clouds at times on Tuesday. Sunshine is the word for Wednesday and Thursday.
NEXT ROUND OF ACTIVE WEATHER SATURDAY… While it is way too early for any specifics, there is a chance of a few strong to marginally severe thunderstorms developing locally on Saturday. Showers may begin as early as late Friday evening. Rain coverage peaks on Saturday before tapering off late Saturday evening. Flash flooding issues will be possible as rain amounts of 1-3” in total will be likely. That does not sound like much rain at face value, but the problem is local soil (especially near the Alabama and northwest Florida coast) remains highly saturated. This is a situation we will be monitoring over the next few days. We’ll bring you the latest in the RedZone Weather app.
My next forecast video will be posted by 7:15AM tomorrow morning. Have a great evening!
Cold temperatures are ahead Wednesday night into early Thursday morning. Some patchy areas of frost may become possible across inland areas of southwest Alabama. Full details here: https://t.co/MUyblRXoWi https://t.co/Dj7j7SXATQ

Absolutely GORGEOUS day across Alabama and northwest Florida. Temperatures are in the low-70s locally. Doesn’t get much better for a mid-April day! 😎 https://t.co/aJhmKr53gU
Most forecast models call for neutral ENSO conditions (e.g., neither #ElNino nor La Nina) for the peak of the Atlantic #hurricane season (August-October). https://t.co/AquFouX5gz
Lots of sunshine and pleasant temperatures are in store for us this Monday. We hope you have a great start to your week!
Looking ahead to midweek… you might want to find those jackets if you put them away recently. Near record low temperatures are possible Thursday morning. https://t.co/L8ucJI3Ebm
Other than a few showers being possible Tuesday morning, the next few days look dry and cool. Overnight lows by Thursday morning will be in the 40s. https://t.co/jcppJCTd3p
MOSTLY SUNNY TODAY; LOW RAIN CHANCES TILL SATURDAY… Sunshine has finally returned! Other than a low chance of rain tomorrow (Tuesday) morning, the next several days are slated to be dry, sunny, and rather cool for late April. High temperatures on this Monday will be in the mid-70s across the region with plenty of sunshine expected throughout the day. Scattered clouds will move in from the west tonight ahead of a few showers becoming possible on Tuesday. Full sunshine and dry conditions are ahead for Wednesday and Thursday ahead of a few showers again becoming possible late Friday evening. The most active weather day this week will likely be Saturday when scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to return. I’ve got all of your Monday morning forecast details below.
QUITE PLEASANT TODAY… It certainly will be nice to have a day with full sunshine! High temperatures will be in the 73-76 degree range this afternoon across south Alabama and northwest Florida. We will begin to see clouds move in tonight ahead of a few showers becoming possible on Tuesday. Overnight lows on Tuesday morning will be in the low-50s.
FEW SHOWERS POSSIBLE TUESDAY MORNING… A few areas of rain may become possible tomorrow morning due to the interaction between a shortwave trough and a frontal boundary in the northern Gulf. Rain chances remain fairly low (20%) but not entirely zero. Any showers that happen tomorrow are more likely to develop closer to the coast. Rain should be to our east by the early afternoon hours of Tuesday. Clearing skies are expected Tuesday afternoon with highs in the mid-70s.
SUNNY SKIES WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY; COLD NIGHT… Full sunshine is expected on Wednesday into Thursday as cooler, drier air moves into our region. High temperatures each day will be in the low-70s. Wednesday night into Thursday morning will be quite chilly. Overnight lows on Thursday morning will be in the low-40s.
INCREASING CLOUDINESS FRIDAY… Temperatures will be on the rebound later this week ahead of a few showers becoming possible Friday night ahead of high rain chances on Saturday. Cloud coverage will increase throughout the day on Friday. Showers will become possible after sunset Friday evening.
RAIN & STORMS LIKELY SATURDAY… Our next chance of heavy rain and widespread thunderstorms will happen on Saturday as an area of low pressure approaches from the west. There are some scenarios that point to strong to severe thunderstorms being possible in our local area on Saturday, but that idea is not set in stone just yet. Other model solutions suggest rain and general thunderstorms being the likely outcome. This is something we will be monitoring over the next few days. Regardless of which specific scenario actually happens, you can expect a high chance of rain and thunderstorms on Saturday.
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.

If it has felt like it has been forever since we have seen the sun….It has! Lets take a look at how wet April really has been. Of the last 17 days, 8 days have had measurable (Trace or greater) rainfall. 2 days at Mobile and 4 days at Pensacola saw rainfall >1 inch. https://t.co/Lp6EE1YwAR
The large eye of powerful #TyphoonSurigae has now cleared out on visible satellite imagery.
#Surigae remains a Category 4 equivalent typhoon, however, it is expected to begin gradually weakening as it turns out to sea in the coming days. https://t.co/LIOxEEnOdC

Rain chances will finally diminish this afternoon into this evening but not before a few showers being possible this morning. High temperatures will be in the mid-70s today.
Have a nice Sunday! 👍
🙌We can see the light at the end of the tunnel! Rain will continue tonight but should begin to diminish by Sunday afternoon. Then cooler and drier weather will persist through most of the week. We might even see lows in the 30s and 40s across the area Wednesday night. #mobwx https://t.co/oPAI1tWgIj
RAIN IN COASTAL COUNTIES… Light to moderate rain continues early this evening, mainly across coastal counties. Heavier rain continues to happen near the Alabama and northwest Florida beaches. No warnings as of 3:57PM.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms continue across the region this afternoon. Heavier rain has developed across parts of southern parts of Mobile, Baldwin, Escambia (FL), and Santa Rosa counties. https://t.co/zkskWfMA6u
SCATTERED SHOWERS… Scattered showers and storms are drifting eastward on this Saturday across south Alabama and northwest Florida. Heavier storms are happening near and just south of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach as of 11:15AM. Widespread severe weather is not expected today.
TWITER IS DOWN… For the second time in less than 24 hours, Twitter is experiencing a global outage, including my @rzweather handle that I use to push weather content constantly. Over the next few hours, I’ll have updates here in the RZW app exclusively until Twitter fixes their technical problems.
