ANOTHER MUGGY DAY: Showers have formed in the tropical air over Alabama this morning, and they will become more numerous as the day progresses. The sun will peek out at times, but otherwise expect scattered to numerous showers and storms today with a high in the low 80s. Dewpoints are running in the upper 60s this morning, so humidity levels will remain very high.
We are not expecting much change tomorrow, with a good chance of occasional showers and storms. The showers should begin to thin out a bit Thursday, and by Friday a pretty good part of the state should be dry as lower dewpoints slip into the state from the north.
DRY WEEKEND??? We will continue to be bold and daring and forecast dry weather for Alabama this weekend, with sunny days, fair cool nights, and lower humidity levels. A good chance we will begin the day in the upper 50s both Saturday and Sunday morning.
The dry weather should last through Monday, but moisture levels will slowly rise through the rest of next week.
AT THE BEACH: Look for a mix of sun and clouds along the Gulf coast through Thursday with scattered showers and thunderstorms. Friday, the showers will be widely scattered, and most of the weekend should be dry with just a slight risk of a shower in spots. Highs along the immediate coast will be close to 80, with mid 80s inland. The water temperature at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab this morning is 76 degrees (F).

I have a Montgomery trip on the agenda today, which might prevent me from producing an afternoon Weather Xtreme video, but I will post a forecast discussion one way or another. Enjoy the day!
