As rain envelops parts of Alabama, Montgomery is likely to experience brief periods of precipitation, while nearby regions brace for more cloud cover. The coastal stretch from Savannah to Charleston enjoys a period of dry and partly cloudy skies, offering a temporary relief from the wet weather. Meanwhile, New Orleans and Houston maintain stable conditions with no notable precipitation expected in the coming hours.
In Atlanta tomorrow morning, expect sunny skies beginning at 7 AM with a temperature of 46 degrees.

In New Orleans, temperatures will hit 77 degrees, and Tampa is on track for a warm 82 degrees. Houston and Shreveport will both see highs around 82 degrees as well.
