That pesky disturbance that just won’t go away is finally showing some changes, and it isn’t necessarily good news. Although chances of becoming a named storm are low over the next couple days, there is now a 70 percent chance of formation within the next seven days. The good news is most models are showing the system to be scooped up and sent northward before reaching the United States.

We finally have rain chances for the entire state, but don’t let the graphic offer too much hope. Although there is a chance of rain for the entire state, rain and storms will be isolated to scattered. When temperatures are this hot, any storms that develop could become strong.

Some places, including Jasper and Hamilton, could have a heat index near 110 Sunday. A heat advisory covers most of the state.
