As expected, pop up afternoon showers have returned and the chance should exist each afternoon through Monday. The best coverage will be Sunday and Monday. You can view our Storm Track 9 Live Super Doppler at the following link: Live Super Doppler. Be sure to also view our latest Webcast for an update on how long the showers will last (link). After Monday, the chance of scattered pop up showers should drop once again, and temperatures will rapidly heat up for the middle and late part of next week.
Meantime, the disturbance in the southern Gulf was upgraded to Tropical Storm Barry Friday, but was downgraded to a Tropical Depression as it moved ashore along the west coast of Florida. On the first day of the 2007 hurricane season, the 2nd name on the list has been used. Barry should not strengthen much because of the westerly wind shear over the western Gulf. This should "kick" Barry rapidy to the northeast across the peninsula of Florida Saturday afternoon. It will bring some much needed rain to the Florida peninsula. Then, the remnant low pressure system should spread rain over the fire ravaged areas of south Georgia, then to South Carolina. Unfortunately, the Tennessee Valley will not see any significant rainfall from Barry.
