Happy first day of August, I hope you are looking forward to our last month of meteorological summer.

Heat advisories have been issued for Southern Mississippi and Southern Louisiana, while excessive heat warnings have been issued for areas north of Jackson, Mississippi, as well as the New Orleans Metro area. These weather statements are in effect through at leat Friday evening.
