Discussion
An upper-level trough has set up shop just to our west and this has aided in pushing deep moisture into our area and the result is likely to be more in the way of light-to-moderate rain and possibly a thunderstorm or two. In fact, the chances for rain will remain for the next couple of days as we turn quite warm again in northern Alabama. On the tropical scene, a tropical system off the east coast will continue to push to the northeast over the next couple days and it could intensify into tropical storm status. Tropical Storm ‘Dorian’ has picked up slightly in intensity during the past 24 hours as it closes in on the Windward Islands and eastern Caribbean. Its maximum sustained winds are now up to 60 mph with movement to the west at 14 mph.
