Alabama Skies: 100 degrees seems to be the standard Friday in real temps
Published 10:08 pm Thursday, June 29, 2023
Most of the state is expected to hit the 100-degree mark in real temperature today. Once we add in humidity levels, it’s going to feel like 109 – 117 degrees across the state. We continue with excessive heat warnings and heat advisories.
A lot of people will be traveling or attending events this weekend as we get ready to celebrate Independence Day. If you do travel, be sure to protect pets left at home or in the vehicle against the heat. Take plenty of water in a cooler in case of heavy traffic or car trouble. The dangerous heat continues, so also take precautions while attending events.
