CLANTON – Sunday, 8:30 am, June 21, 2026

 

Today, scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are forecast mainly across the southern half of the state. Rainfall will generally be around 1 inch, but some spots could receive 2-4 inches, resulting in localized flooding.  Damaging wind gusts are not expected.

Little to no rainfall will occur tonight through Monday morning.  During the afternoon (and for the remainder of the week), we will be in a northwest flow aloft, with periodic clusters of storms (Mesoscale Convective Systems) moving from northwest to southeast across the state each day.

The timing for Monday’s activity is shown below.  A few damaging wind gusts up to 60 mph, and heavy rainfall that may produce localized flooding are the threats.

There will be breaks in the precipitation each day, allowing any flooding to subside.  However, due to saturated soils this week, it won’t take as much rainfall to produce additional flooding.  Finally, the timing for each cluster of storms after Monday is highly uncertain, both in timing and specific locations.

The SEC opponents for Alabama women’s basketball during the 2026-27 campaign has been officially revealed.

The Tide will face some of the top teams in all of women’s college basketball throughout SEC play this upcoming season. Alabama will face Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Missouri, Vanderbilt, Ole Miss and Texas A&M at home, with Ole Miss being the Tide’s only SEC opponent that they will face twice this year, both home and away. Alabama will be on the road for matchups against Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi State, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas as well.

The dates, start times, and television network for each will be revealed at a later date.

Alabama held a 7-9 record throughout SEC play last season. The Tide were widely regarded as one of the top teams in the nation despite struggling at times during conference play, and Alabama was able to make a run during the SEC Tournament with a shocking upset to the Tennessee Lady Vols in Nashville. 

Alabama went 24-11 last season as a whole, but the Tide will undoubtedly need to play better during SEC play this year nonetheless.
