Afternoon Update (7/27/2010)


Showers and Thunderstorms held off for most of the day, allowing temps to rise into the low-mid 90's. The radar looks bleak currently as most of the big rain producers are well to our south. Area wide, nighttime lows will hover in the lower 70's with winds out of the south becoming southwesterly by morning. I would expect overnight rain chances to fall near 1 in 4 for NW Alabama, with areas to the south slightly higher as they are closer to an axis of moisture convergence.

Not much activity going on currently in the tropics, which can be a blessing and a curse. We don't want to see loss of life and property, but we sure can use the rain as late summer is the driest part of the year for our area, second to October... However, not to fear as Hurricane season won't hit full swing until mid-August into September and hopefully provide us with some much needed rainfall.

If you have any weather data that you would like to report I would be very appreciative. You can post the data in the comment section at the bottom of each blog entry. Hi's, Lo's, rainfall data... anything is fine. It would be very useful for future forecasts.
