First thing Sunday morning brings quite the change to the forecast.

North Alabama and Southern Tennessee are in a level 1/5 risk for severe weather with the primary threats being gusty winds and ponding due to torrential rain.

Many of us will wake up to scattered showers and storms outside our windows tomorrow morning as a cold front moves through the area and brings stormy conditions to our north western counties around sunrise and then to our south eastern counties by late breakfast tome.

All of us will be dry by late afternoon and we'll have plenty of sunshine return to the forecast by the end of lunchtime. High temperatures for the day will sit in the mid-90s and will feel like close to 100 degrees.

Monday and Tuesday will be primarily dry with highs in the mid-90s with elevated dew points and, as a result, very muggy and humid conditions.

Wednesday through the upcoming weekend feature isolated chances for rain each day with the heaviest rain day being Saturday. Highs will sit in the low to mid-90s each day with little relief from any breezes.

TODAY: AM Storms, PM sun. Highs in the mid-90s. Chance of rain 40%. Wind: W 5-10 MPH.
