While Tuesday morning started mainly dry with some sunshine in the mix, shower and storm coverage was increasing by midday while the sky became mostly cloudy otherwise. Scattered to numerous showers and storms, capable of heavy rain and lightning form Tuesday afternoon. Rain totals of greater than an inch may lead to localized flooding. A flood watch continues for our entire viewing area through Tuesday evening.

The sky remains mostly cloudy Wednesday, while showers and storms stay scattered about, moving south to north through sunset. Temperatures warm into the 80s, perhaps mid and upper 80s in locations that remain dry long enough.

A narrow band of heavier rain and some storms formed along highway 29 in far southwest Alabama early Thursday afternoon. That likely continues north through Thursday afternoon, gradually spreading rain across more of our area.

Shower and storm coverage gradually increases Friday afternoon, moving southwest to northeast. Outside of rain, some sunshine within a mostly cloudy sky may allow for temperatures to warm into the mid and even upper 80s in some locations.

The hot, humid air may fuel strong to severe storms in our area late Monday afternoon into Monday evening. The storm prediction center places much of our area within a marginal (level 1/5) severe risk. Damaging wind gusts are the main hazard.

Posted: Some rain and occasional thunder was moving across the northeast part of our area Tuesday morning into the early afternoon.

Our Wednesday weather looks about as nice as possible in early June here in central and south Alabama. Our area remains dry with sunshine for the rest of Wednesday, with a brisk east wind gusting over 20 mph at times. Meanwhile, high temperatures range from the low to mid 80s, well below normal for early June in our area. Wednesday night looks mostly clear and refreshingly cool with lows in the mid to upper 50s.

Montgomery dropped to 57 degrees early Thursday morning, just three degrees above the city's record low for June 4th.

Thursday remains another pleasant early June day, with low humidity, sunshine, no rain, an east breeze, and high temperatures in the mid to upper 80s. Thursday night looks mostly clear and mild with lows near 60°.

Temperatures warm into the upper 80s in most locations Friday afternoon, while the sky remains partly to mostly sunny and our area stays dry. Friday night looks mostly clear with lows in the mid 60s.
