...Hotter Weather Ahead...

Today will be another day with some sun and a few storms across north and central Alabama. Most of the sun will come during the midday hours, and most of the storms will come from about 2:00 until 8:00 p.m. Like yesterday, the storms won’t move much, and a few communities will see heavy amounts of rain. But, on the other hand, many places will see no rain at all. That is the hit and miss nature of summer storms.

The weather begins to heat up tomorrow as more stable air slips into the state. In fact, we expect highs in the 93 to 96 degree range both tomorrow and Friday with only isolated afternoon thunderstorms.

HOLIDAY WEEKEND: A weak front will stall out near the Alabama/Tennessee border, which might enhance afternoon storms across the Tennessee Valley. Otherwise, we still expect pretty routine summer weather Saturday through Monday. Each day will be partly sunny, very warm, and very humid, and we will have to dodge scattered afternoon showers or storms each day.

TROPICAL STORM BRET: The second tropical storm of the season formed last night just east of the Mexican coast. Bret is moving inland this morning well to the south of Brownsville, TX. In only twelve previous years since 1851, most recently in 1986, have two or more tropical storms formed during the month of June.

TUESDAY’S DOWNPOURS: A nearly stationary thunderstorm produced temporary flooding in the downtown Birmingham area between 2:00 and 3:00 yesterday; our
weathernet site at Legion Field measured 1.37”. The total at the Birmingham Airport was 0.94”. Our gauge on Noble Street in downtown Anniston picked up 0.96” during another downpour.
