TURNING COLDER: That was a widespread rain across Alabama Sunday. All of
that is mostly gone and now a cold front is moving across the state from
NW to SE. March is known as a windy month. While we're still several hours
away from March, it is still going to be windy tonight and Tuesday as the
colder air spreads over the state. We look for a low tonight in the 30-32
range across Central Alabama, but NW winds (over 20 mph at times) is going
to make that feel a lot colder. There is just enough moisture left in the
air to cause a few overnight snow flurries. No problem at all is expected.

In fact, there is a good chance you won't see any. Most of Tuesday will have
considerable sunshine, but NW winds of 12-25 will make the high in the mid
40s seem quite cold.

We have introduced a chance of some light rain at times on Thursday. This is
not 100 percent certain at this time. We should go back to mostly sunshine
on Friday.

A few examples of rainfall for the last 24 hours:

1.30 inches in Wedowee
1.18 in Alexander City
1.08 in Talladega
1.05 in Selma

THE EASTERN USA SNOW SITUATION: In the Great Smoky Mountains, the total
snow accumulation is expected to be 5-9 inches for tonight through Tuesday.
Winds Tuesday will gust as high as 40 mph with highs only near freezing. It
will drop into the teens tomorrow night, especially in the higher
elevations. Along the Atlantic Seaboard, the Washington-Baltimore area is
expected to receive 3-6 inches before the day is over. In New York, the
total is expected to reach 6-10 inches from later today through tonight.
Boston is looking for 5-10 inches tonight and it could be mixed with
freezing rain after midnight.

MONDAY NOTES: As much as 7.30 inches or rain fell Sunday in Manatee County
Florida. There was 5.17 inches in Sarasota, 4.45 inches in Kissimmee and
3.76 inches in Melbourne...the nation's warm spot was also in South Florida
with 84 at Pembroke Pines...coldest in the lower 48 this morning was 10
below zero at Saranac Lake, New York. The lowest in Alaska was 24 below at
Nuiqsut.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: I skipped church last night and spent a lot of
time catching up on playtime with little Miss Molly. She jumped on the bed
last night and hid herself under her blue blanket. She would periodically
pop her head out from under the blanket and grab at me. This went on for a
long time, then a big wrestling session followed by chase ball, pull
rope-you name it...on our early walk today, two new dogs in the community
wanted to meet Molly so bad that they came through the thick underbrush,
jumped over the Old Crow Creek and got acquainted. Molly was in high cotton.
It makes her day if she gets patted on the head by a human or gets to play a
few minute with another doggie. Cats are a different story...life goes on.
