...Storms Growing...

Showers and thunderstorms formed early this morning in a moist,
slightly unstable environment across Central and Northwest Alabama.
One storm in Northeast Jefferson County just after 7 a.m, dumped 0.96
inches on J.B. in just twenty five minutes. Storms have been active
over Northwest Alabama at this writing and are growing in coverage and
intensity over western sections at late morning. One healthy storm
formed over Southwest Jefferson County around 9:30 and was still
strong as it passed the Leeds/Moody area just before lunch.

THIS AFTERNOON: A weak trough seems to be aligned across North
Central Alabama this afternoon. Thunderstorms will continue to fire
and grow in intensity as they head generally east or east northeast
through the day. Coverage will be fairly good overall and intensity
will be on the heavy side from time to time across Central sections.
Watch out for copious lightning, some winds gusting to 40 mph and
torrential rains. Highs will struggle to get very far into the 80s,
especially in rain areas.

TONIGHT: A pair of disturbance are discernible on satellite imagery
back to our west over Northeast Texas and Arkansas. These will be
rotating east and northeast later tonight, likely triggering
additional bouts of showers and storms. It will be muggy overnight,
with lows around 70 degrees.

SUNDAY: The moist atmosphere will still be place over Alabama
tomorrow with more disturbances rotating through the flow. This means
more rounds of showers and storms, with some folks picking up some
pretty decent shots of rain. Once again, fairly abundant cloud cover
should hold temperatures back.

THE WEEK AHEAD: Monday looks a lot like the weekend in the morning GFS
model run. It tries to concentrate the showers and storms over the
Tennessee Valley Tuesday and Wednesday. We will call for a fairly
typical summertime patter of scattered afternoon and evening storms
through the remainder of the week.

MAIN EVENTON THIS DATE IN 1988: The policy of the National Park
Service had been to let naturally occurring fires in Yellowstone
National Park burn. Fires that were started by lightning in June were
allowed to burn until this date in 1988. By that time though, the
fires were out of control, and would burn over one millions acres
before they were extinguished in November. The cost of fighting the
fires was over $120 million.

ON THIS DATE IN 1988: Rescuers search for victims and survivors of
flash flooding from the night before in Tennessee. The training
thunderstorms dumped 7 inches of rain in 6 hours in and around
Lawrenceburg, Tennessee. At least two people were killed. Bridges
were washed out and vehicles swept away.
