    I worked somewhere a couple of summers ago and the couple of older ladies that were there kept it so cold I had to wear my down jacket all the time. It was crazy! My nose was runny and everything. I haven’t been back to that location yet, I hope they retired. :rofl:

    From AlabamaWX

    BLOW TORCH HEAT: Summer heat will be the big weather story for Alabama and the Deep South through the weekend… easily the hottest weather so far this year. Expect a high in the 95-100 degree range today and tomorrow, followed by mid 90s over the weekend. Factor in the high humidity, and the heat index will peak at 105-110 over the western 2/3 of the state through tomorrow, where an “excessive heat warning” is in effect. There is a “heat advisory” for East Alabama, where the heat index will rise into the 100-105 degree range.

    Most locations will be dry through tomorrow with lots of hazy sunshine, but SPC has defined a “marginal risk” of severe thunderstorms for parts of North Alabama due to the potential for storms dropping down into the state from Tennessee from time to time. Usually the strong upper ridge will suppress any storms, but we will keep an eye on radar trends.

    [​IMG]

    FOURTH OF JULY WEEKEND: The ridge slowly weakens, but the weather remains hot Saturday and Sunday with highs in the 94-98 degree range. The heat backs down Monday and Tuesday with a high close to 90 degrees. Each day we will mention the chance of a few random, scattered afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms… odds of any one spot getting wet each day are around 30 percent. Most of the storms will come from 2:00 until 9:00 p.m.

    REST OF THE WEEK: Showers and storms will increase in coverage over the latter half of the week as moisture levels rise and the air becomes more unstable; highs drop into the upper 80s, which is below average for early July in Alabama. See the video briefing for maps, graphics, and more details.

    [​IMG]

    TROPICS: A surface trough is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms a few hundred miles south-southeast of Bermuda. Upper-level winds are marginally conducive for some slow development of this system during the next few days while it moves generally northward at 5 to 10 mph. NHC gives it only a 20 percent chance of development.

    The rest of the Atlantic basin, including the Gulf of Mexico, is very quiet and tropical storm formation is not expected through early next week.

    ON THIS DATE IN 1998: “The Corn Belt Derecho of 1998” in the following states: NE, IA, IL, IN, KY. A derecho which originated in far southeast South Dakota moved across Illinois during the afternoon and evening and continued as far east as Ohio the next morning. Every county in central Illinois sustained some damage, as these severe thunderstorms passed. Winds gusted in the 60 to 80 mph range, with some localized microbursts producing winds more than 100 mph. Significant damage occurred in the microburst areas, including the towns of Morton, McLean, LeRoy, and Tolono.

    I was having to do that in my truck for the past 6 months, It finally just quit. Turns out the replacement connector I put on a year ago was just about melted off. I ended up using 2 female spade connectors one insulated and one bare. Seems do be working just fine.

    Hello for the crap state of IL gentleman. Im gunna be rolling through the state the 9th,10th, and 11th to go pick my camper up in Dothan (hail damage). Was wondering if anyone would be interested in my Dometic 75DZ with dometic slide for $700. Has been in the back of my truck for a few years and does show wear, but we just used it as a deep freeze and it still runs flawlessly. Also i have a mountain hatch solo swag tent for 200. Let me know if yall are interested and ill bring em down.

    Hope everyone has been doing good.
