Timing of Summer Soakers

James Spann, ABC 33/40, and Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Chief Meteorologist said that we can anticipate that “most of the summer soakers will come from 2:00 until 10:00 p.m and odds of any one place getting wet are in the 30-40 percent range most of the week. Afternoon highs will be in the 91-95 degree range for most communities, and a "heat index" could be needed later in the week as heat index values continue to rise.”
