7:00 AM | Looks like a very wet week

Paul Dorian

A strong high pressure ridge is centered across the western Atlantic Ocean and it’ll pump in moist air across the Tennessee Valley.  An upper-level trough over the Great Plains will shift eastward over the next couple days and this combined with the high moisture content in the current air mass will result in a high chance of showers and thunderstorms for the area and some of the rain will likely be heavy at times going right into the middle of the week.

7:00 AM | Threat for PM showers and thunderstorms to end the work week

Paul Dorian

A strong wave of upper-level energy will push east into the Great Lakes region this morning and that will generate some instability across northern Alabama as a frontal system approaches and this could result in a strong-to-severe PM thunderstorm.  The frontal will slide through on Saturday reducing our chances of rain, but then return on Sunday as a northward advancing warm front.  The chance for showers and storms will increase on Sunday and as the front stalls out in the neighborhood that higher threat will continue on a daily basis in the Monday-to-Wednesday time period.

7:00 AM | Very warm, humid conditions continue

Paul Dorian

Southerly winds will continue to pump in moist air and our chances for showers and storms will increase going into the weekend.   In addition to the moist air mass, a weakening frontal system will push into the Tennessee Valley late in the week keeping us somewhat unsettled

7:00 AM | Another rain-free day likely across northern Alabama

Paul Dorian

There will be a weak wave of energy in the upper atmosphere that will cross the region today, but it’ll have little moisture to work with so we’ll probably experience another rain-free day across northern Alabama.  Southerly winds will bring in more moisture on Wednesday and our chances for showers and storms will begin to climb during the second half of the week.

7:00 AM | Not a bad way to end the month of July

Paul Dorian

 All in all, this looks like a pretty quiet next few days across northern Alabama with high pressure taking control.  The flow in the upper atmosphere will remain northwesterly for the next couple of days ensuring rain-free conditions as well as fairly humidity levels for this time of year.

7:00 AM | *Unusual deep trough developing in the Mid-Atlantic to bring us threat of heavy showers and strong storms and cooler conditions than recent days*

Paul Dorian

A developing trough of low pressure in the upper atmosphere near the Mid-Atlantic coastline will help push a front into this area and the result will be a high chance of showers and thunderstorms across northern Alabama and some of the rain can be heavy at times today and tonight.  In addition, the hot conditions of recent memory will give way to much more comfortable temperatures and with highs not far from 80 degrees over the next couple days and that is despite the return of sunshine on Saturday.

7:00 AM | 90's today for highs, but 80's are more likely tomorrow and this weekend

Paul Dorian

A trof of low pressure near the east coast will feature a disturbance rounding its base dragging a cold front through the region.  As a result, the daily chance of showers and thunderstorms will continue for the next couple of days and temperatures will likely hold in the 80’s for highs on Friday, Saturday and Sunday following the passage of the cold frontal system.

7:00 AM | Scattered showers/storms next couple days...more widespread threat late in the week

Paul Dorian

A weak frontal boundary will remain stuck in pace across the Ohio Valley and we’ll be in warm, humid air mass situated to its south.  Scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible over the next few days, but widespread heavy rain is not expected until perhaps near the end of the work week.  At that time, a frontal system will swing towards northern Alabama as it rounds the base of an upper-level trough of low pressure.
