Rain Returns Today

Another Dry Work Week Upcoming

Ongoing Drought

Tonight

Sunday

Rain chances return to the forecast this afternoon and evening as a cold front moves through the region. Chances for showers and storms will begin to increase during the afternoon hours, peaking during the evening and overnight hours. Rainfall amounts will generally be less than one inch so we do not expect any improvements to our ongoing drought conditions.

After a brief cool down on Sunday, temperatures will rebound to seasonal levels for the upcoming work week. Conditions will be dry through most of the week, with the next chance of rain coming on Friday.

Drought is affecting all of Central Alabama.

Mostly cloudy tonight. Showers likely and a chance of thunderstorms. Lows in the 40s to lower 50s.

A stray shower early Sunday in the southeast. Otherwise, becoming mostly sunny with highs in the upper 60s to lower 70s.
