Summery Summary

Sunday dawned warm and muggy across Alabama this morning. Very few of the main reporting stations dropped below 75F overnight. This is an important number, because if the nighttime temperatures can’t get below 75F, it is harder for humans and animals without air conditioning to recover that the heat of the day. A few showers developed over Northeast Alabama during the early morning hours, but they were gone by mid-morning. Clouds eroded and the mercury started to climb.

At 2 p.m., the thermometer was registering 99F at the Birmingham Airport. With another hour of heating, the official high will likely reach 100F.

Isolated storms formed over Northeast Alabama again this afternoon. They were drifting south southeastward. Those isolated storms will die out this evening and we will get ready for another hot one on Monday, with temperatures again expected to be near 100F. In fact, the mercury is expected to flirt with the century mark for at least the next four days.
