Alabama Skies: When will some rainfall cool us down?

Published 8:23 pm Tuesday, August 1, 2023

We’ll have another sunny, hot, and humid day across Alabama Wednesday, but some rain chances finally move into one region Wednesday night and Thursday.

Northern Alabama could have a shower or two overnight, then a shower or thunderstorm before dawn Thursday morning. Then, most of the state will have decent rain chances Thursday, especially northern and central Alabama. We’ll see what models show Wednesday evening, but some dry yards and farms could get some much-needed shower activity over the next couple of days.
