.KEY MESSAGES...
Issued at 657 PM CDT SUN MAY 24 2026
- Showers and thunderstorms are forecast in multiple waves
throughout the week. High rainfall rates create a risk for
isolated flash flooding over the coming days.
- A low risk remains for strong thunderstorms with gusty winds.
- Patchy fog will develop overnight, resulting in lower
visibility. Use caution.

.DISCUSSION...
(This afternoon through Saturday)
Issued at 1208 PM CDT SUN MAY 24 2026
A mid-level trough axis centered just to the west of Alabama will
continue to promote deep southerly flow across the Gulf Coast
region. High vertical moisture content along with lift from
passing impulses within the trough, and weak to occasionally
moderate instability, will cause multiple waves of showers and
thunderstorms through the week.
Forthcoming high rainfall rates, on top of already accumulated
rainfall, will pose a risk for isolated flash flooding over the
coming days. Today`s threat seems most focused from near
Birmingham to points northeast and east. This is due to a compact
area of low pressure moving across central Alabama today,
providing a focus and enhancement of heavy rainfall, which is
modeled to fill in as it begins to impact urban and terrain areas
across the aforementioned axis. While a relative lull is expected
tonight (activity becoming more isolated), another batch of heavy
showers and thunderstorms is expected on Monday; this may require
either an extension of the current Flood Watch or the issuance of
a new one, especially if a favored corridor of heavy rainfall can
be pinpointed amongst the scattering of activity.
Deep-layer flow is on the weak side through the week, though any
periodic enhancement timed with peak instability and/or outflow
could pose a low risk for thunderstorms with gusty winds. For
today, a level 1 out of 5 risk for severe thunderstorms with
damaging wind gusts is highlighted for areas along and east of
Interstate 65, though this threat is being hampered by widespread
cloudiness and precipitation.
