The Weatherbrains podcast talked last night about the recent tragedy of the flooding in Texas, where so many people (including many children, some people from Alabama) were killed.

For anyone headed to the beach, here are some tips on staying safe in rip currents.

For folks who live near the coast, now is a good time to review your hurricane safety plans, before the tropics get really active.

DISCUSSION:

Skies have ranged from mostly sunny to partly cloudy the majority of today in Cullman, with a thunderstorm this evening. The High was 91, and the Low was 70.

This is just typical summer rain we’ve got going on, fairly scattered across the region. Mainly we’ve got High pressure in place over the region and some southerly wind flow from the Gulf. And it’s about as classic as it gets for summer around here. It fluctuates some from day to day but is not really going to change that much any time soon.
