Good morning! The intense, relentless, dangerous heat continues – not just here in Alabama, but over a huge part of our country. Widespread Heat Advisories continue from the Atlantic coast to the American heartland, as a massive Heat Dome remains in control. There will be random scattered storms each day with very little day to day change. Meanwhile, we’ll be monitoring the northern Gulf later this week for potential tropical development. Here’s my brief forecast discussion.
