...Lazy, Hazy Days of Summer...

We are getting into the core of the summer season here in Alabama, and the
hot, humid weather is here to stay for a while. For the next five to seven
days, afternoon temperatures will peak in the 92 to 98 degree range, and the
main daily difference in the weather will involve the coverage and intensity
of afternoon showers and thunderstorms.

For the last two days, afternoon showers have been almost impossible to find
over the northern half of the state. We believe the air aloft will be ever
so slightly colder today, and the moisture levels will be slightly deeper.
So, showers and storms should return this afternoon, but they will be widely
scattered, and many places will remain hot and dusty. The chance of any one
spot getting wet today is about one in four.

AT THE BEACH: A few showers and storms are possible along the Gulf coast
today and tomorrow as a tropical wave moves into the eastern Gulf of Mexico.
At this time conditions don't appear favorable for the wave to develop into
anything more serious, and we don't expect a wash-out. Just keep in mind you
will have to dodge a few showers or storms from time to time. By the
weekend, scattered storms will decrease, and the amount of sunshine will
increase along the coast. High temperatures will run in the 90 to 93 degree
range.

TROPICS: Aside from the wave in the eastern Gulf of Mexico, another tropical
wave is moving into the eastern Caribbean with no sign of development at
this time.

BAMA HEAT: Alabama's hot spot yesterday was Tuscaloosa with 98 degrees.
Auburn and Montgomery reported 97, while the official high in Birmingham was
95.
