Watching the Tropics

Tropical Storm Alberto entered Mexico this morning and is expected to dissipate inland within 36 hours. The risk of rip currents for portions of the Alabama Coast will stay high until tomorrow, then decrease to moderate levels over the weekend.

The Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Weather Center will continue to monitor the tropics for future developments that could impact the Alabama coast or bring any associated issues inland.

Another HOT Weekend in West Alabama

As the Midwest and East are experiencing a long-duration heat wave, our area is also faced with some hot conditions. The Weather Channel said that “widespread daily record highs are expected. A few cities that could set new records at times through the weekend include Chicago; Cincinnati; Louisville, Kentucky; Pittsburgh; and Washington, D.C. “

James Spann, ABC 33/40, and Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Chief Meteorologist said to “look for sizzling weather with highs in the 95–100-degree range. A few isolated afternoon showers or storms are possible, most but places will stay dry.”

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.
