On most forecast discussions this time of the year, I try to make it clear we always have the chance of a few rogue showers or storms on radar on any summer afternoon, even with upper ridging in place. A few have indeed popped up this afternoon… you can count the number of showers on one hand, and most of them are west of I-65.

One little cluster of showers is just west of Northport; other showers are in Hale and Chilton counties. These will vanish quickly once the sun goes down later this evening…
