More above normal rain and storm chances

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) - The pattern has been more active than what we’d typically expect during the summertime. We’ve had plenty of days with rain and storm coverage up in the 50-70% range.

More of the same is expected this week. Not everyone will get wet, but your chances of being impacted by a shower or storm at some point are pretty high. And remember...those rain chances don’t have anything to do with how heavy the rain is, or how long it lasts!

It’s possible we see a strong to perhaps marginally severe thunderstorm along the way, but storms of that intensity will be few and far between. Gusty winds of 40-50mph and small hail will be possible if stronger storms do wind up developing.

High temperatures will be just below 90 degrees as a result of the higher rain chances both today and tomorrow.

Temperatures will come up a touch into the 90s as a result of the lower rain chances and increased daily sunshine. Peak heat indices will head for the upper 90s courtesy of the very muggy conditions sticking around for the time being.
