Jeff Morrow and the WAFB First Alert weather team provide an update on What We're Tracking Next on Wednesday, June 7.

Afternoon highs will climb into the low 90°s each day with scattered afternoon t-storms. A few showers will linger into the early evening, but the overall weather pattern will be very summer-like. The only silver lining is that humidity levels will remain acceptable.

A mid-level disturbance will be riding along the backside edge of a trough Saturday. This is causing us to increase rain chances for Saturday. Scattered to numerous showers and t-storms are expected Saturday mainly during the afternoon. If you have outdoor plans Saturday be sure to keep a close eye on the forecast as we fine tune it in the coming days.
