Northern Alabama could have some scattered rain showers and a few thunderstorms today, but the real threat comes from the wind. Parts of the state could have sustained winds of up to 25 miles per hour with some gusts up to 40 miles per hour. People driving high profile vehicles could experience difficulty driving today and tonight.

Another thing to watch is the possibility of some record-breaking heat Thursday. Get ready to crank up those air conditioners if you haven’t already.
