...Some Needed Rain Is On The Way...

Our three week dry spell is about to end thanks to moisture streaming
northward from a large disturbance in the western Gulf of Mexico.

Today will be breezy and cool across Alabama as a wedge pattern continues. A
cool easterly flow will keep daytime temperatures in the 70s, and we will
have cloudy periods as well. But, we do not expect any rain through tonight.
Rain will expand into the state during the day tomorrow, with rain reaching
the northern counties by afternoon. Then, periods of rain are likely
tomorrow night through Sunday as a surface low moves slowly into south
Mississippi. Showers could linger into Monday before drier air begins to
arrive Monday night and Tuesday.

A BIG CHILL: We still project a sharp change to colder weather in about 8 to
10 days as a very deep upper trough forms over the eastern third of the
nation. Longer range models suggest early morning temperatures could reach
the 30s over parts of north Alabama at some point in the October 16-19 time
frame, with some frost not out of the question.

FOOTBALL WEATHER: No rain for high school games tonight, but the sky will be
mostly cloudy with temperatures around 70 at kickoff.
Auburn hosts Louisiana Tech tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 at Jordan-Hare
Stadium. The sky will be cloudy, and some rain is likely during the game
with temperatures only around 70 degrees. Alabama travels to Lexington to
play Kentucky tomorrow at 11:30 a.m. A few light showers are possible with
temperatures in the 70 to 74 degree range. And, UAB will take on Mississippi
State at Starkville at 2:30. Rain is likely with temperatures in the low 70s
at Scott Field. You will need the rain gear!
