Rain For Memorial Day

The Friday afternoon web video is on the server:

Still looks a wet Memorial Day for Alabama and the deep south. The models are still having some problems resolving shower opportunities for tomorrow and Sunday. At the moment it looks like the best chance of a shower tomorrow will come during the morning, and on Sunday late in the afternoon and at night. There should be some pretty good periods of sunshine tomorrow afternoon and during the day Sunday.

Rain will increase Sunday night in response to an approaching upper trough, and rain and storms will be widespread on Monday. Rain totals around 2 inches seem likely between Sunday night and Tuesday morning, when the rain will move on to the east. A few strong storms could be involved, but we are not expecting a major severe weather threat at this time.

NEXT WEEK: Generally speaking, the week looks wet. There should be a break in the rain Tuesday afternoon and part of the day Wednesday, but another wave on the stalled front will bring another good round of rain and storms Wednesday night into Thursday. And, more rain is possible late Friday night Saturday (June 3-4), so some beneficial amounts of rain are a real possibility for Alabama during the next seven to ten days.

Once again, trying to time out the specific rain events next week is very hard to do this early in the game...

Many of you have a nice long weekend ahead... if you are traveling be safe and enjoy some down time!

and then again, many of us work in emergency services and will not have any down time at all and will work all weekend to provide response for police and fire departments, but as JB says "Life goes on.......and on......and on

I hear ya Dave. Strange that two Dave's on this board work in Emergency Services. It's just a shame that sick and injured persons, as well as crooks and domestic situations wont cease on Holidays so we could take them off huh??
