National Weather Service warns that all time record highs possible.
And the National Weather Service is warning that it will likely get hotter.
Forecasters said highs on Tuesday are expected to climb into the upper 90s and could even top 100 degrees for parts of southwest Alabama. The heat index -- or the gauge of how hot it feels when you combine the air temperature and humidity levels -- could climb as high as 111 degrees in some areas this afternoon.But Wednesday could be worse.Why so hot? Forecasters pointed to a very strong area of high pressure that’s sitting over the middle of the U.S. The strength of the ridge is near record levels, according to the weather service.
Forecasters said Wednesday could feature widespread 100 to 103-degree high temperatures, “and given how the rest of the week has been 104 to 105 is not out of the question.” Record breaking heat is expected again Wednesday with actual temperatures between 100-106° over much of the area, except mid to upper 90s along the immediate coast. Heat index values mostly between 107-113°. Drink plenty of fluids & stay in the A/C if possible.
