WE ARE CHEERING FOR RAIN: And it looks as if we finally have
something to cheer about. Showers and thunderstorms formed again late
this morning—this time over the extreme north. They increased in
number by this afternoon, as they begin working their way slowly
toward the SE. Because of their slow movement, it is likely that
several communities in the Tennessee Valley received over an inch of
rain this morning.

We have something else to be encouraged over. We are focusing one of
our eyes toward the west, where showers and thunderstorms widespread
across Central Mississippi were working their way NE. This is part of
the very moist blanket of air that has covered the great State of
Texas far too long. This afternoon the Dallas-Ft. Worth area and much
of Central Texas were getting a break.

BACK HOME IN CENTRAL ALABAMA: We believe that by the time the
weekend is over, many communities in Central Alabama will get about 2
inches of rain. Not everybody, mind you, and some folks could get
more than that. The slow pace of the thunderstorms means that some
communities will get some very heavy rain. With clouds predominating
Saturday, our high temperature should only be about 87. The showers
and thunderstorms will become more scattered in nature by early next
week and we expect high temperatures to return to the lower 90s.

Those thunderstorms yesterday afternoon and last evening, dumped 2
inches of rain at Mobile and Moundville and over 1 inch at Muscle
Shoals Airport.

BEACH WEATHER: Lots and lots of folks are down on the white sand
enjoying an end of a July 4th weeklong holiday. They will have a good
chance of showers and thunderstorms Saturday and Sunday with highs
around 88. There will still be scattered ones Monday and Tuesday, if
they decide to extend their vacation.

THE WEST IN AN OVEN: I am sure that is what a lot of folks felt like
yesterday and again today. One statistic stands out. The 116 in Las
Vegas tied their all-time record high that was last recorded over 20
years ago. Their low this morning was 89. It was 127 in Death Valley
yesterday, 111 in Zion National Park, 120 in Needles. It was 118 at
Henderson just south of Las Vegas and also at the NWS office in
Vegas. However, Las Vegas airport is considered the station for
climat records.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: With some thunder boomers again tonight
and tomorrow, Little Miss Molly will spend a lot of time under the
bed. We have a good friend in Hueytown that highly recommends
Acepromazine to give little dogs at such times. Her two small dogs,
Honey and Maxwell, stay calm as a cucumber during storms. We cannot
seem to remember to ask our vet for some when Molly goes in for check-
ups. Started a new adventure this morning. Switching to coffee
straight black. I have never used sugar—just cream. The adventure
lasted 30 minutes. Life goes on.....
