OCTOBER STARTING WARM: The chilly weather of Friday morning was a
flash-in-the-pan and now we are experiencing, once again, temperatures some
five degrees warmer than normal in the daytime and nights about 10 degrees
above normal.

However, we are in for more changes later in the week which will
include a decent chance of rain.

Much cooler air is already stockpiling near the Canadian border and
it will be spreading southward. For Alabama, the cold front will arrive
later in the day Thursday and will reach South Alabama Friday. Behind that
front will be the strongest high pressure system since last spring. This is
good news of you like cooler air.

By the weekend, temperatures across Central Alabama will range from
the pleasant mid 70s in daytime to the cool mid 50s at night.
Our first showers should appear Thursday and possibly late Wednesday
night. The better chance of showers and possibly a thunderstorm should be
Thursday night with some showers lingering in the cooler air of Friday
morning.

TROPICAL WEATHER: Tropical Storm Stan was over the Bay of Campeche
(which is also the SW Gulf of Mexico) He will probably become a hurricane
before moving inland into Mexico by early Wednesday. Meanwhile, all eyes are
on a large nervous weather area centered a few hundred miles east of the
Central Bahamas. The westward moving tropical wave should become better
organized and eventually a tropical depression or tropical storm is likely.
One of the weather models moves it into the Gulf of Mexico then toward the
NE to near the North Carolina Outer banks by late Friday. Another one sends
it west across the Central Gulf. Translation: Stay tuned.

SIGNS OF THE SEASON: Western Montana should get 2 to 5 inches of
snow tonight above 4,000 feet elevation (which means most of the area.) In
North Utah, the NWS has issued a Winter Storm Watch for the Wasatch and part
of the Uinta Mountains for 6 to 12 inches of snow above 7,000 feet by
Tuesday night. USA low this morning, 25 at Stanley, Idaho.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD. Little Miss Molly all mixed up and it
is entirely my fault. I decided to take a 90-minute power nap Sunday
afternoon. I usually wake up automatically without an alarm. This time I did
not wake up until 10:30 pm! I had slept through a Sunday School teachers
class at 5 pm, church at 6 pm and an after-church get-together with friends.
Little Miss Molly must have been ringing the bell and I did not hear her.
When I awoke she was lying in the door of the master bedroom as flat as a
pancake. That is one of her tricks when she gets impatient waiting to take a
walk. So, the rest of the evening included a 10:30 pm walk with Molly
followed by a big ball game and pull-rope, plus some loving and cuddling.
Then I went in my office and worked a bit and Molly took a brief nap. I did
not eat until midnight so Molly was ready for another walk at 1 am. She has
been sleeping much of the day to get back on track. I guess I was guilty of
puppy abuse. She still misses my wife being away and each time we come in
from a walk, she searches the entire house. But life goes on.
