...Feels A Little Like Fall...

GOOD MORNING! What a great morning across the area! Several record lows
will be in jeopardy when we get the final tabulations this morning. They
include 58 at Birmingham and 62 at Montgomery. Other records include 56 at
Anniston and 57 at Huntsville. It looks like the opportunity for record
lows is now past, with readings running some 3-5 degrees warmer across the
area tonight. Still refreshing for August in Alabama.

WEEKEND WEATHER: Today will be a gorgeous day, more reminiscent of late
September than mid-August with lots of sunshine, dry conditions and
dewpoints in the lower 50s. High pressure centered over the Appalachian
states will continue to be the main influence in our weather through the
weekend. Conditions should remain mostly sunny and dry on Sunday with highs
making it into the upper 80s.

UPCOMING WEEK: Moisture levels will really start increasing by late on
Sunday as a stronger southeasterly flow starts up. Monday should be dry,
but by Tuesday, high pressure should slide far enough to the east to allow
isolated afternoon and evening storms to reappear. Another front will
approach from the north on Wednesday, increasing shower and storm chances.

TROPICS: The disorganized Caribbean system will move into the Gulf, but
should stay well to the south of Alabama. There is a chance that it will
redevelop as it heads towards the Gulf.

ALLEN: After weakening near Haiti and Jamaica the day before, Hurricane
Allen was again strengthening in the western Caribbean on this date in 1980.
A NOAA aircraft recorded a minimum pressure of 899 millibars (26.55 inches)
while the monster hurricane was just offshore of the Yucatan Peninsula.
Only Hurricane Gilbert, with an all time Atlantic low pressure reading of
888 millibars in 1988, and the infamous Labor Day hurricane of 1935 with a
central pressure of 892 millibars were lower than the lowest of Allen's
three pressure minima.
