GOOD AFTERNOON: Alabama will be experiencing the hottest weather it has seen in quite some time through Monday as high pressure continues to be basically in control. A Heat Advisory is in effect for Central Alabama through Sunday as the hottest temperatures of this heat wave occur. Readings today and tomorrow will range between 95-99 degrees, with heat indices of 100-110 degrees. A few locations in West Alabama might touch 100 degrees, with heat indices above 110F. The steamy conditions will even continue into the overnight hours, with readings in the warm middle 70s, so don't expect much of a respite even at night. Take it easy and stay hydrated during this hot spell.
The excessively hot weather will continue through Tuesday, but some relief is in sight as a weak front sags down into Alabama for midweek, bringing showers and slightly cooler readings.
A few factors are keeping the mercury from going completely crazy with widespread 100 degree readings. First, we have had a wet July. This means a good deal of the Suns energy goes into evaporating ground moisture.
Secondly, there still is quite a bit of low level moisture, which means at least some clouds. Still, if you must be outside for the next few days, please take it easy. Take frequent breaks in the shade and stay hydrated.
ORANGE OZONE ALERT: A Level Orange Air Quality Alert is in effect for Sunday across the area. Everyone will want to restrict their outdoor exertions during the heat of the day. Also, put off mowing your lawn with gas mowers and try to limit your vehicle usage. This will help reduce ozone emissions.
A LITTLE FORECASTER HUMOR: Hurricane Specialist James L. Franklin added a funny to his morning Tropical Cyclone Discussion on Tropical Storm Franklin: FRANKLIN...THE STORM...NOT THE FORECASTER...HAS BECOME A LITTLE BETTER ORGANIZED OVERNIGHT. And he concluded with: IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE THAT LITTLE OR NOTHING WILL BE LEFT OF FRANKLIN...THE STORM...NOT THE FORECASTER...IN 2-3 DAYS.
TRACKING FRANKLIN: As you can tell from the first part of the above discussion, our Tropical Storm is a little more organized today. It will likely become a hurricane shortly. But the forecast is a complicated one. The storm is responding to a trough of low pressure that is passing to the north of the tropical cyclone. The tropical storm is moving to the north northeast. As it does, Franklin is expected to strengthen a tad before increasing shear begins to weaken it (hence the second half of the funny.) Franklin should continue moving out to the east northeast over the North Atlantic eventually, but dont be surprised if it even does a crazy loop-de-loops before heading out to sea.
ANOTHER RECORD: Franklin continued the trend of its predecessors by being the earliest F named storm in history when it formed on Thursday. The previous earliest sixth tropical storm that I could find was 1995s Felix. Felix formed on August 8th.
