Humidity levels have been creeping higher since Saturday and we are going to be back in the soup for today as well as the week ahead. We will also be dealing with a series of waves moving around the Bermuda high. It is building into the Southeastern US. A southwest flow aloft is bringing up ripples in the flow. It will not be raining all the time but there will be some downpours and a few heavier thunderstorms to deal with during the week ahead.

Very warm humid conditions with waves of heavy rain next 5 days across the Eastern & Southern US

Here's another recipe for fudge that's very easy to make. You can double it, or quadruple it, for more servings. 4 tablespoons cocoa or cacao powder (I like 2 tablespoons of each)

3-Ingredient Fudge

If you know who the man is below, you already know what I’m about to say…. We’ll have several days of rain and thunderstorms ahead. The stalled front we’ve been talking about will remain over the mid-South with the Atlantic high keeping it at bay. Since this will enhance the amount of moisture that we’re receiving daily, there will be a chance of rain essentially every day during the week.
