Tracking heat, humidity, and occasional rain and storms

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) – Our streak of hot and humid weather conditions will continue through Sunday and early next week. The only relief from the heat will be scattered rain, which will continue to be a natural feature Sunday… and that trend will remain the norm early next week.

The scattered showers and thunderstorms on Saturday will slowly weaken and become more isolated as the night progresses. Lows will be around 21 degrees Celsius, with light to moderate winds. The muggy factor will be there!

That said, if you work outside or have outdoor plans… remember to stay hydrated, drink, and rehydrate! H2O and sunscreen are good friends to always have nearby!

Highs on Sunday will remain in the 35-40s Celsius range, with a mix of sun and clouds. Expect humid conditions with a feel of 38s Celsius. The possibility of scattered showers and thunderstorms remains, and while showers are unlikely, have a rain backup plan if you plan to be outdoors on Sunday. Overnight lows will be 21s Celsius.

With no major weather changes expected, early next week will be – you guessed it – hot and humid. Maximum temperatures will drop a little to below 35 degrees, but the humidity factor will remain high.

There is a chance of isolated rain and thunderstorms every day, which is quite typical for summer. Low temperatures at night are mild to warm, around 21 degrees.

Tropical Watch: Beryl has weakened to a tropical storm and is now located in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico. It is forecast to move toward southern Texas, likely as a strong tropical storm or Category 1 hurricane.

Direct impacts to Alabama are highly unlikely, but we will continue to monitor the situation closely. Indirect impacts include a high risk of surf and rip currents on beaches in Alabama and the Florida Panhandle this weekend and early next week.

The storm could also cause residual moisture in Alabama, so the forecast for early next week still indicates an increased probability of rain.

This year’s hurricane season is already off to a historic start and we expect it to remain very eventful for the next few months. We are watching this season closely and will continue to do so!
