RIGHT NOW: Nothing on the radar, despite a weak surface boundary dropping south through Central Alabama. We will stay dry tomorrow, and even Friday is looking generally rain-free at this time. We will still have to watch developments over Missouri and Arkansas Friday afternoon; those storms could roll down into our state Friday night.

FOURTH OF JULY WEEKEND: The 12Z GFS is trending drier on Saturday; we will probably begin to lean in that direction in our forecast as well. But, scattered showers and storms will be around on Sunday, and into the first half of next week as moist air settles into the state, and a front approaches and stalls out over Tennessee. Hopefully we will pick up some decent showers since the top soil is getting pretty dry around here. We will need to raise the high for Saturday up into the low 90s with more sunshine than originally expected, but upper 80s are being printed by the GFS for Sunday and Monday.

VOODOO LAND: You can watch the Weather Xtreme video for the long range model output; bottom line is that the 5940 meter contour is now off the board for mid-July, but the weather will still be hot and humid one way or another with some risk of scattered, mostly afternoon showers and storms. The tropics remain quiet for now.

AIR QUALITY: A code orange air quality alert has been issued for Jefferson and Shelby counties for tomorrow due to ground level ozone.
