...Dry Weather To Continue...

GOOD MORNING: Morning temperatures today are not quite as comfortable today across Central Alabama. But still not bad for July. Temperatures will rise to right around or just below normal on this Saturday afternoon. Clear skies will give way to scattered cumulus clouds this afternoon, but rain chances will be nearly nil.

REST OF THE WEEKEND: Under fair skies tonight, lows will drop into the middle 60s. Sunday appears to be a carbon copy of today, with highs right around the seasonal norm of 90 degrees.

INTO THE NEW WORK WEEK: High pressure will remain in firm control of Alabama's weather through much of the coming week. Moisture levels will be rising and the increased humidity will be palpable. We will reintroduce the slight chance of afternoon and evening storms by Tuesday. Temperatures will be rising, perhaps reaching the middle 90s, and maybe even the upper 90s by midweek.

AIR QUALITY: Air quality levels are forecast to be in the yellow, or moderate category today and Sunday. Only unusually sensitive individuals should be impacted.

TROPICS: Three tropical waves are traversing the tropical Atlantic as we edge closer to the peak period of hurricane activity. None of them appear to be a threat to develop.

SPACE WEATHER: The two giant storms on Jupiter are converging to a tremendous cell merger.
Scientists are eagerly awaiting the results of the collision.

ON THIS DATE IN 1788: Hail piled up to a depth of 34 inches at Canterbury CT. The melting ice caused significant flooding.

ON THIS DATE IN 1999: 3 inches of rain fell at Las Vegas NV from a monsoon thunderstorm, most of it in just one hour. The storm was the worst in Vegas in many years, turning streets into rivers, washing away bridges and car and killing two people. McCarran International Airport was closed for an hour. Many tourists took refuge in the casinos along the strip.
