Some Rain to Break Up the Heat Midweek
FORECAST:
Monday (High 93, Low 70): Partly to mostly sunny. Isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible.
Tuesday (High 92, Low 71): Partly cloudy. Isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible.
Wednesday (High 92, Low 72): Mostly cloudy. Widely scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible.
Thursday (High 87, Low 70): Mostly cloudy. Numerous rounds of showers and thunderstorms are possible.
Friday (High 88, Low 69): Partly cloudy. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible.
EXTENDED OUTLOOK:
Saturday (High 89, Low 69): Partly cloudy with a 30% chance of showers/thunderstorms.
Sunday (High 89, Low 70): Partly cloudy with a 30% chance of showers/thunderstorms.
Monday (High 90, Low 70): Partly cloudy with a 20% chance of showers/thunderstorms.
Tuesday (High 89, Low 71): Partly cloudy with a 30% chance of showers/thunderstorms.
Wednesday (High 90, Low 70): Partly cloudy with a 20% chance of showers/thunderstorms.
DISCUSSION:
Skies were partly to mostly sunny in Cullman today, and then we had a thunderstorm cool us off in the afternoon. The High was 93, and the Low was 68.
We're going to continue in this pattern for a while, with mostly high pressure over the region the next few days. And there's going to be enough Gulf moisture to kick off a few showers and thunderstorms, pretty typical summer stuff.

Staying Hot Through Midweek, Then a Little Relief as Rain Chances Increase
Got some thunderstorms along the Gulf Coast and into Florida, also up in the Carolinas from that weak tropical wave that has moved inland from the Atlantic. Also got some thunderstorms up in the Ohio Valley. Of course we could see some thunder around here, but for the moment, the few radar echoes we have are just showing rain. And there isn't much of it. Satellite mainly showing fair-weather cumulus clouds over our region. When I looked out the window earlier, I think what I saw would qualify as cirrostratus though.
