CLIMATE DATA:    Yesterday’s high in Montgomery was 93, with a Heat Index as high as 102. Morning low 74.  Normal High/Low 94 and 72.  Rainfall: 0.23”.  (East Montgomery Rainfall:  2.27”.  Two day total 3.66”)  Sunrise at 6:02 AM.

TODAY:   Hot & Humid, again. Today’s High near 93. Heat index 100+. Scattered to numerous, but random showers & thunderstorms mainly in the afternoon & evening.  Locally heavy downpours    Low tonight 73.   

Future Radar examples is underdone.  The models are struggling.  Showers and storms will be much more numerous than this….again.

A weakness in the upper atmosphere will promote better than normal rain chances through Thursday,  Storms thin out a bit Friday.

.

Scattered to numerous random afternoon & evening storms.  Rain chances return to a more routine summertime normal Friday & Saturday.  Highs in the low to mid 90’s.  Triple digit heat indices.  Lows at night in the low to mid 70’s.  Rain coverage is a little better, again on Sunday and Monday.

BEACH FORECAST:  Elevated rain chance continues.  Scattered to numerous storms especially Saturday & Sunday.  High in the upper 80’s.  Gulf water temperature 88. 

TROPICAL OUTLOOK :    I’m happy to say….The tropics are STILL very quiet for now.
