...Rain Moves Out This Morning...

Rain will move out of Alabama this morning as a deepening storm system lifts
northeast. Clouds will linger most of the day, however, keeping temperatures
in the 40s. The clearing process across Alabama should begin late this
afternoon or tonight.

Tomorrow will be a dry day, with amply sunshine and temperatures reaching
the low 50s.

WEEKEND STORM: Yet another storm will form in the northern Gulf of Mexico
this weekend, and promises to bring rain to much of the state late Saturday
and Saturday night. For now it looks any threat of wintry precipitation will
be confined to areas near the Alabama/Tennessee border. And, the
precipitation up that way should be quite light. It looks like the best
chance of rain this weekend will come from about 4:00 p.m. Saturday through
6:00 a.m. Sunday.

A shot of colder air will flow into the state early next week following the
weekend system.

NEXT WEEK: Perhaps the most intriguing storm system will move through here
toward the middle of next week, sometime in the Tuesday-Wednesday time
frame. This has the potential to bring a winter storm threat to parts of the
deep south, but we simply can't define the area with the greatest chance of
wintry precipitation at this point. Temperatures should remain well below
normal for at least the first half of next week.

ICY MESS: Ice storm warnings are in effect this morning for the western part
of the Carolinas, western Virginia, and other areas northward to
Pennsylvania. Freezing rain could lead to ice accumulations of up to one
inch in spots.

TEXAS TWISTER: A tornado touched down yesterday 3 miles south of Katy, TX.
No major damage was reported.
