EARLY SUMMER DAYS: It\u2019s the same old song and dance each day in the weather across Alabama this week. The days usually start off dry with a partly sunny sky. The days are very warm and humid with highs in the mid to upper 80s each afternoon. During the heating of the day, scattered showers and storms begin to randomly bubble up across the Alabama landscape, usually during the 2PM-10PM timeframe. Though organized severe storms are not expected, on occasion, storms can reach severe limits, with strong, gusty winds and hail the main concerns. Of course, all summer storms produce tremendous amounts of lightning and torrential tropical downpours, which can produce areas of isolated flash flooding. Rain chances through Thursday will range from 60-80% across the state.<\/p>\n

BIRMINGHAM ALMANAC: For June 16th, the average high for Birmingham is 88\u00b0 and the average low is 69\u00b0. The record high is 99\u00b0 set in 1952, while the record low is 47\u00b0 set in 1917. We average 0.16\u201d of precipitation on this date and the record value is 2.75\u201d set in 1897.<\/p>\n

ACROSS THE USA: Flash flooding possible across portions of Mid-Atlantic\/Carolinas\/Central Appalachians\/Kentucky on Monday and the Central Appalachians\/Central Plains\/Midwest Tuesday. Severe thunderstorms possible for portions of the Northern\/Central Plains\/Upper Mississippi Valley Monday, Central Plains Tuesday, and Midwest\/Great Lakes Wednesday. Fire weather threat for the Great Basin\/Southwest on Monday and southeast Arizona\/western New Mexico on Tuesday, the Southwest sees significant heat.<\/p>\n

HOTTER TEMPS AHEAD: By Friday and the weekend, an upper ridge begins developing late this week will bring rising heat levels and a lower coverage of afternoon storms; highs will be in the low to mid 90s and looks to be hottest temperatures so far this year for Alabama and Deep South.<\/p>\n

IN THE TROPICS: All is quiet and no tropical storm or hurricane development is expected in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea, or the rest of the Atlantic the next seven days.<\/p>\n
