...Clouds Hang Tough...

The weather didn't exactly feel like July yesterday in Alabama. Not a single
reporting station reached 90 degrees, and places like Huntsville, Muscle
Shoals, and Decatur stayed in the 70s all day. Clouds and occasional showers
will keep temperatures well below normal again today as the soggy summer
weather pattern continues.

THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND: We will have to highlight rain and storms once again
tomorrow thanks to a rather strong upper trough for July. In fact, some
spots could see heavy amounts of rain. The trough axis remains to the west
of the state on Sunday, so scattered to numerous showers and storms are
likely for Independence Day with a few intervals of sunshine during the day.

BRIGHTER AND DRIER??: There is still a decent chance that showers and storms
will thin out early next week as the air aloft becomes a little warmer, and
the stronger upper winds shift a little to the north. But, by Wednesday of
next week showers could increase again in response to yet another surface
front that will stall out just north of Alabama.

WATERLOGGED: Mobile measured 16.07" of rain during the month of June, making
it the fourth wettest June on record for the Port City. Really amazing
considering no tropical storm was involved. Out in Texas, the rain total at
D/FW airport for June was 10.49", their second wettest June on record. Also,
June 2004 was the wettest month in Dallas/Fort Worth since May 1982.

AT THE BEACH: Showers and storms are likely along the central Gulf coast
today, becoming a little more scattered tomorrow and Sunday. Temperatures
will peak in the 84 to 88 degree range, and the latest sea water temperature
along the Alabama coast was 83 degrees.
