...Nice Weather Ahead...

GOOD MORNING! It's kind of a gray start out there across much of
the area on this Sunday morning with lots of low clouds and some fog.
Plenty of low level moisture is still in place, despite the passage of a
fairly decent cool front over night. Much drier air will arrive on the
wings of brisk northerly winds that should pick up as we go through the day.
The drier air should begin to erode the clouds by afternoon, leading to
sunny skies. Combine that with the lower humidities, slightly lower
temperatures and refreshing northerly breezes and get ready for some nice
weather over the next few days.

JUST HOW NICE? Tonight will see lows drop into the lower to middle
60s. A few normally colder locations may actually see the 50s tonight.

THE WEEK AHEAD: Monday and Tuesday will be some of the best weather
days you will ever see in Alabama in July. Skies will be sunny, rain
chances will be nearly nil. Humidities will be lower. Temperatures will be
in the middle on Monday and near 90 on Tuesday. As we move further into
time, the forecast gets a little fuzzier. With a northwest flow, any
disturbances skimming along could bring along the possibility of a dying
storm complex, but it looks like mostly dry conditions will last through
midweek. Next good chance of rain: Thursday or Friday.

ON THIS DATE IN 1986: A slow moving F2 tornado near Minneapolis
was very photogenic as it strutted live for the cameras of a television news
helicopter. The crew taped some amazing close up footage of the violently
rotating vortex as it ripped trees from the ground and flung them like
matchsticks. The twister was on the ground for 30 minutes. Tornadoes are
not unusual occurrences in Minnesota in July. During the summer, the
tornado belt shifts northward into the Upper Midwest.

IN 1986: Oakfield, WI was hit by a major tornado. The F5 tornado
struck Oakfield at 7:15 p.m., injuring 17 and destroying 47 of the 320 homes
in the town.
