Discussion
An upper-level trough of low pressure will deepen as it treks across the northern states in coming days at the same time a tropical low pressure system forms over the western Gulf of Mexico. This Gulf low will be aided by moisture from the Pacific Ocean (remnants of Hurricane Lidia) and will spread some heavy rainfall to the southern sections of Mississippi and Alabama as it treks in an east-to-northeast direction. While the heaviest rainfall looks like it will stay to the south of here, showers are on the table for northern Alabama later in the week.
