===================================================================

A cool front will pass through Alabama today, but the air is so dry we don't
expect any rain, only scattered clouds. A fresh surge of chilly air will
move in here tonight and tomorrow, keeping temperatures below normal.

WEEKEND RAIN: A surface front will move northward through the state on
Saturday as a warm front, and that should bring some light rain at times,
especially to areas north of I-20. Then, periods of rain will be more
widespread by Sunday and Sunday night as a storm system gathers strength to
the west. A few thunderstorms might even be involved.

MAJOR COLD SNAP: A shift in the upper air pattern should allow the coldest
air so far this season to roll into Alabama early next week. Monday should
be day with falling temperatures; we should wind up in the 30s late in the
day. By Tuesday, the mercury still struggle to climb above freeze with a
brisk northerly wind. A few snow flurries will be possible Monday night and
Tuesday, but for the moment accumulating snow doesn't look likely around
here.

At the moment it looks like the coldest morning will come early Wednesday,
when the mercury could drop into the 10 to 15 degree range across much of
north and central Alabama.

Needless to say, it is really early in the game and some of these numbers
might need to be adjusted down the road, but we could very well have
pipe-bursting weather across the deep south at some point next week.

MORE COLD: Excessively cold air continues to deepen in Alaska; the high in
Fairbanks tomorrow is forecast at -10 with a low of -21. The snow cover
continues to expand in the U.S.; parts of Iowa reported over 5 inches last
night.
