...Wet At Times Through Tomorrow...
BENEFICIAL RAIN AHEAD: High pressure aloft, which can provide very hot
and dry weather this time of the year, will retreat westward today,
opening the door for an upper trough to form over the eastern third of
the nation in coming days. In the short term, this will bring wet
weather to Alabama, followed by a refreshing weather change just in
time for the weekend.
Our forecast package will highlight a good chance of showers and
thunderstorms today and tomorrow, and most Alabama communities have
good potential to receive one to two inches of rain. A few spots could
even go over three inches, where the stronger storms develop. While a
few strong to severe storms are not out of the question with potential
for wet microbursts (localized areas of damaging straight line winds),
the main threat will come from heavy rain and frequent lightning
strikes. And, because of the clouds and showers, temperatures will be
trending downward. Most places will stay below 90 today, tomorrow, and
really for the next five days.
REFRESHING WEEKEND: Rain and storms will move south of here by
tomorrow night, and an impressive surge of dry air will move into
Alabama just in time for the weekend. The sky will become mostly sunny
on Saturday, with a high only in the mid 80s along with low humidity
levels. By daybreak Sunday, we will be very close to 60 degrees, and
50s are likely for the cooler spots across the northern half of
Alabama. The record low for July 19 is 58 degrees, set in 1984, and we
will give that a run for the money. Sunday looks wonderful with lots
of sunshine and low humidity levels continuing.
The dry weather will linger into the first half of next week; moisture
levels will slowly increase during the latter part of the week with a
chance of scattered showers and storms again by Thursday and Friday.
AT THE BEACH: The sky will be mostly cloudy from Panama City to Gulf
Shores today, tomorrow, and Saturday with a good chance of showers and
thunderstorms. Dry air returns Sunday with a good supply of sunshine,
and the first few days of next week are looking rain-free as well.
Highs along the immediate coast will be in the mid 80s through
Saturday, with upper 80s Sunday and early next week.
ON THIS DATE IN 1998: A dramatic and mysterious cooling of waters in
the northeast Gulf of Mexico was killing fish and chilling bathers
along the beaches of the Florida Panhandle. Coastal water temperatures
from near the Alabama line to as far east as Panama City, plunged
suddenly from the upper 80s to the low 70s, the kind of surf
temperatures that could be expected off of Cape Cod in mid-July. The
clear, cold water killed all fish life with its extraordinarily low
levels of dissolved oxygen. The best scientific guess right now is
that the cold water has welled up from the DeSoto Canyon about 30
miles or so off of the Panhandle.
