FIRST ALERT WEATHER: Scattered rain showers with temperatures into the low-to-mid 60s

(WAFF) - Skies are mostly cloudy this morning with scattered rain showers. The rain will be most widespread to the west of I-65 with showers more isolated in nature farther east. That should be the case throughout the day.

The heaviest rain today will remain to our southwest across sections of Louisiana and Mississippi. We're starting this morning with temps in the low-to-mid 60s. The wind won't be as breezy today, just 5-10 mph out of the southeast.

It won't be as warm either, although highs should still push into the mid 70s. A few sprinkles are possible overnight, and we'll stay mostly cloudy with lows around 60.

The unsettled weather continues this weekend. The first half of Saturday is looking dry. By the afternoon, scattered storms could develop; but the most widespread rain will hold off until later in the evening.
