The Monday afternoon map discussion video is available on the web, and on iTunes:

RADAR UPDATE: You can almost count the number of showers across Alabama right now on one hand. Any showers this evening will end soon, and the weather here will remain dry and dusty through mid-week.
HEATING UP: Look for mid 90s in many areas tomorrow and Wednesday with lots of summer sun and a very dry ground below. Any afternoon showers will be very isolated, and most likely, non existent.
THURSDAY-FRIDAY: We will bring in a risk of a few isolated afternoon showers or storms on Thursday and Friday, but you know the story; many neighborhoods will be dry.
WEEKEND: The air will be a tad more unstable over the weekend, so the chance of scattered afternoon showers and storms will be in the forecast, otherwise partly sunny weather on Saturday and Sunday with high temperatures near 90 in most places.
LONG RANGE: The GFS continues to suggest the hottest weather in the nation for the end of June and the first week of July will be over the southwest U.S.... while the weather here should be fairly routine for summer. Highs around 90, some risk of scattered "hit and miss" afternoon showers and storms on a daily basis. There continues to be some hint of a mean trough over the Great Lakes, with a general weakness in the upper ridge here across the Deep South.
TROPICS: We will keep an eye on a tropical wave entering the eastern Caribbean; no sign of organization now as the system moves to the west. We will keep an eye on it...
We will be recording a new WeatherBrains podcast tonight... it should be posted early tomorrow morning. I will post a note here when it is on iTunes. The next map discussion video will be posted by 7:00 a.m. tomorrow!
