...More Sunshine And Too Dry...

There are places in West Central Alabama where only about one-tenth of an
inch of rain has fallen in the first 16 days of October.

October is normally our driest month of the year and we have experienced
some great droughts this time of year. Looks like very little chance of rain
for most of the coming week. Another cold front may approach the area late
Friday and early Saturday. We could see some showers and possibly a few
thunderstorms along that front. At this time, it does not appear to be a
widespread rain event.

The BIG QUESTION, however, is what may become Hurricane Wilma and her future
path. Late last night it was still a tropical depression and moving ever so
slowly. It was located about 150 miles SE of Grand Cayman and moving WNW at
only 2 mph. The track forecast from the National Hurricane Center moves it
very slowly through Tuesday. It may become a hurricane by then. After that
the favored track brings in between the western tip of Cuba and the Yucatan
Peninsula into the SE Gulf of Mexico by next Friday. Beyond that it is
rather uncertain. We will have to wait and see if it curves more toward
Florida or moves more northward.

LOOKING ELSEWHERE: Heating up in the Desert Southwest again. It got up to
95 Sunday in Death Valley. The coldest was 21 at Stanley, Idaho and West
Yellowstone, Montana...sure would like to be atop Mt. Washington, New
Hampshire at this time. They received 3.46 inches of rain in the 24 hours
ending Sunday evening. Their high temperature was only 31 and the low 28. It
is likely they have some glaze or snow.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Spent most of Saturday at Briarwood
Presbyterian Church for the Storm Alert Extreme (some great information).
Then Sunday, I spent all day down in West Alabama. Bottom line-poor Little
Miss Molly did not have any playtime with me. I will for sure start a pay
back today. She always knows when I am going to leave because she follows me
every step with the forlorn look. She sure knows how to make me feel guilty.
Life goes on.
