In 2004, Michael got his first job forecasting the weather at WVUA-TV which is owned and operated by the University of Alabama.From 2007-2009 he worked weekend weather duties at WRDW-TV in Augusta, GA before getting the job offer at FOX10.He is a member of both the American Meteorological Society and the National Weather Association and holds seals of approval from both organizations.

We’ve seen warm temperatures all week and that will continue today with highs in the low 80s with conditions remaining dry.
Conditions this evening will feel much colder due to the winds.
A gulf low will bring a steady stream of rain to the Gulf Coast for most of the day.
It’s not as chilly this morning, and we’ll still get warm this afternoon with highs reaching the mid 80s later today and a cloudier sky compared to Monday’s sunshine.
Expect 20-40% coverage today and tomorrow, but we may see a bigger shot by the end of next week.
A major push of fall air finally arrives this weekend and the impact will be felt Friday night as the winds ramp up significantly.
The drought will worsen, but it will be a very nice day with tons of sunshine.
Highs should be a little warmer today but clouds are going to hang tough again this afternoon for coastal locations.
We go totally dry for Friday and the weekend so no issues for high school football games or for weekend weather plans.
Today’s high will be just under 90 degrees instead with morning temps sliding back into the upper 60s at the end of the week as humidity goes down.
We will see more shower chances today, but the biggest chance is still expected to come on Wednesday.
The air has definitely gotten a bit more humid and you’ll notice that to begin this week but there’s a good chance that it will help to bring in showers/storms which is VERY needed for the Gulf Coast.
There will be a few more isolated showers in the forecast today but nothing overwhelming, and we go totally dry for Friday and the weekend.
The showers won’t hit everyone, but there is at least a scattered chance in the forecast.
Hopefully you got some much needed rain at your house over the weekend cause this week will be very very dry.
We see 40-50% coverage of rain each day through the weekend with drier and less humid air moving in next week.
After some beneficial rain finally returned to the Gulf Coast, we could see more pop in later today.
Rain deficits are over half a foot for most of the area but there will be very little rain today and chances stay very low the next several days.
We’ll see a better chance for showers/storms today thanks to a stalled front to our north, but we still can’t promise everyone sees rain.
day will be mostly dry and hot with a high in the mid to low 90s, but rain coverage will be ramping up again soon.
By midday, Idalia was a Category 1 storm moving inland through Georgia.
Idalia could be a Category 3 hurricane around landfall, expected on the northwest peninsula of Florida.

This will actually be the coolest day of the entire week, and we’re still expected to reach the mid to upper 90s this afternoon with a “feel like” temperature of 105.
You can tell it’s more humid this morning, and highs today should reach 100 degrees.

We’ve got a very mild morning out there, but temperatures are going to be cranking up as a heat ridge builds in.
Rain coverage, it will remain in the 60% range today through the weekend, but nothing that will last all day long.
Scattered afternoon showers and storms are expected to continue for the next few days, providing relief from some of the summertime heat.
There won’t be as many showers/storms out there today compared to Tuesday, but any that show up can still produce heavy rain and lightning.
Things have been dry overnight and we’ll be mostly dry through this morning, but an isolated shower is still possible.
We’ve got a very humid airmass in place and this will fuel showers/storms this morning and this afternoon.
