Weekend heat, humidity and some heavy storms! – whnt.com

July 10th, 2020 10:50 pm

Hot, humid weather is standard stuff for July in Alabama and Tennessee, but theres some good news for the weekend:

It does look slightly less humid for Saturday!

A weak cool front slides past the Tennessee Valley region early Saturday, and it could reduce the humidity enough to get rid of isolated storms for one more day. We had zero rain Friday; well be close to that again on Saturday (little if any).

Regardless of the small drop in humidity Saturday, the weekend looks hot. Saturday and Sunday do have some significant differences, though:

A weak cold front will approach the Tennessee Valley on Sunday, sparking up thunderstorms along the way. The Severe Prediction Center has a *MARGINAL* Risk of severe weather outlined for north Alabama and south Tennessee.

The SPC defines Marginal Risk as an area of severe storms of either limitedorganizationand longevity, or very low coverage and marginal intensity. In other words, isolated severe storms are possible, but they will be limited in duration, coverage, and/or intensity.

The timeframe for Sundays storms is 2pm to 8pm. The potential impacts include damaging wind gusts as high as 50 mph, heavy rainfall, and frequent lightning.

If a thunderstorm moves in on you this weekend, theres a chance the wind could gust over 35 MPH. It may also bring very heavy rain and intense lightning. Be alert!
