The center of the remnant low that was tropical depression ten is clearly visible on the Mobile radar this morning over Southeast Mississippi. It is rotating westward out of Perry into Forrest County south of Hattiesburg.

Very near the center, at Hattiesburg, winds are out of the north at only 10 mph.

Heavy showers continue near the center, with two main feeder bands curving back into the center from the east. One is across Mobile Bay. The other is across Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties in the Panhandle up into Escambia, Conecuh, Monroe and Wilcox Counties in South Alabama. The showers diminish as they rotate up into Sumter, Greene and Hale Counties.

There is a large mass of heavy rain and storms over the northern Gulf still about 90 miles south southeast of Gulf Shores. It will move onshore during the day.

Visible satellite photos show heavy cludiness over Southwest Alabama, thinning out as you go northeastward. Mostly cloudy skies are over Central Alabama, with partly cloudy skies over North Alabama.

There could be some beautiful skyscapes across the area today with a tropical airmass, bright blue skies and fluffy white and gray clouds.

Temperatures are in the middle 70s with tropical dewpoints around 70 degrees.

Highs today will climb into the middle and upper 80s depending on eventual cloud cover.

Widely scattered showers and storms will form today, but coverage will be low.

WIth high moisture levels, more widely scattered storms will form on Sunday. High pressure will build in for Monday and Tuesday, limiting our rain chances until a front increases them again late on Wednesday into Thursday.
