A Few Storms for Labor Day, Elevated Rain Chances by Wednesday: Sunday Evening Forecast 9/1/2024
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Grant Skinner from the First Alert Storm Team discussed tropical weather, noting low and medium chances of formation in the Gulf and Eastern Atlantic, with one area expected to enter the Caribbean. Locally, spotty showers and brief storms may occur, especially in Mobile and Baldwin County, with temperatures in the mid-80s this evening. For Labor Day, expect isolated showers and storms, a high of 95ยฐF, and heat index values over 100ยฐF. Winds will shift to the southeast by afternoon. Rain chances are expected to increase midweek, with rip current risks rising by Wednesday.
Most places stayed dry today, and just some isolated showers and a few storms are possible for Labor Day. The rest of the evening and tonight, we will keep scattered clouds. By early tomorrow, we will just have a few clouds, and temperatures will start in the low- to mid-70’s. A brief shower is possible tomorrow morning, and isolated showers and a few storms will develop in the afternoon and early evening. Highs will sit in the mid-90’s with heat index values just over 100ยฐ. Rip current risk will be low for Labor Day, moderate for Tuesday, and high by Wednesday. Winds will increase as a front stalls over our area which will also bring more moisture to the area. More widespread showers and storms will be possible by Wednesday and through Friday. Increased rain chances and cloud cover will bring cooler temperatures in the mid- to upper-80’s. In the tropics, we are watching three areas. One is in the northwestern Gulf and will likely move inland before developing. It will likely bring showers and storms to parts of Louisiana and Texas. Another area is in the central Atlantic and will approach the Lesser Antilles to start the week. It has a medium chance of developing over the next week. It is too soon to know the exact track and path as a center of circulation has yet to develop, but we will keep you updated on the latest. Another area is in the eastern Atlantic and has a low chance of development. This is another to watch over the next several days. Right now, there are no current tropical threats for the News 5 area.
