Soaking Rain on the Way?
Be prepared as conditions will then turn to “off and on soaking rainfall Friday through Sunday with total rainfall accumulations ranging from 1.25" in the northwest to as high as 5.5" in the southeast,” said the National Weather Service in Birmingham.
“The weekend won't be a total washout, but occasional rain is likely, and the rain could be heavy at times, especially over South Alabama,” said James Spann, ABC 33/40, and Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Chief Meteorologist. Also, “a few thunderstorms are possible, but for now, severe storms look unlikely. Highs will be in the mid to upper 60s both days.”
