Isolated severe storms will again be possible in part of Alabama on Monday as an unsettled, soggy stretch of days continues.

The National Weather Service reports things may begin to dry out on Wednesday, but forecasters will be on the lookout in case severe weather becomes a possibility again this weekend.

Today, NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center is forecasting a Level 1 out of 5 (marginal) risk for severe weather for roughly the eastern half of the state (shown in dark green in the map above).

A Level 1 risk means that isolated severe storms will be possible.

The weather service thinks damaging wind gusts up to 60 mph and hail up to the size of quarters will be the main concerns with any stronger storm that develops.

Rain and storms will again be possible throughout the day today, but the best chances for stronger storms will be this afternoon (from about 1 p.m. until 4 p.m.) through tonight.

Heavy rain will again be possible, and a flood watch will remain in effect for parts of central Alabama through 7 p.m. today.

Up to 1.5 inches of additional rain will be possible in the areas under the watch today.

Here’s a look at that flood watch:

The weather service is expecting one more rainy day after today before drier conditions take over.

Tuesday will also have rain at times, but so far there is no risk for severe weather in the Storm Prediction Center’s forecast.

Here is the probability of precipitation forecast for Alabama from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. Tuesday:

The weather service said it could get hot by midweek with temps in the high 80s to low 90s Wednesday through Friday.

Forecasters will also be monitoring the weekend (Friday – Sunday) for possible severe weather.

As of Monday morning the Storm Prediction Center has not put severe weather in the forecast for Alabama this weekend, but that could change so keep an eye on the forecast through the week.
