TEMPERATURES WELL ABOVE NORMAL: It is going to be that way for an extended
period of time. In fact, we do not expect daytime temperatures to retract to
where they should be until late next week at the earliest. Instead, look
for highs consistently in the upper 70s. Some places in Alabama will warm to
the 80-degree mark during this time. At one time before daybreak, it was 55
in Birmingham and 39 in Gadsden, the beginning of a warm up.
WHERE, OH, WHERE IS THE RAIN? That is the question we hear more often now
and I wish we had a god answer. While southerly winds will be bringing
moisture into the state, the trigger to set off a lot of showers and
thunderstorms will remain mostly to our north. The Storm Prediction Center
outlines a slight risk of severe thunderstorms Saturday and Saturday night
from SE Missouri and North Arkansas NE across parts of Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio, South Michigan, and West Kentucky. These strong storms should remain
well to the north of Alabama. So the bottom line is that we could see an
isolated shower Saturday afternoon and some widely separated ones on Sunday.
TROPICAL WEATHER: There are clouds and some thunderstorms over the SW
Caribbean. Any chance of tropical development will be slow.
FOOTBALL WEATHER: Dry pleasant weather for high school games tonight with
about 72 at kick off and falling through the 60s. Saturday college football
includes Alabama/Mississippi Sate at Starkville. There will a slight chance
of a shower or thunderstorm during the game which starts at 2:30 with
temperatures near 80. Auburn travels north to meet Kentucky in Lexington
starting at 12:00 noon. Game time temperatures will be between 70 and 75 and
there is a chance of a shower or thunderstorm.
FINAL FRIDAY NOTES: Very cold for so early in the season in Alaska with 32
below zero at Bettles and 27 below at Chandalar Lake. Up in NW Canada it was
33 below at Eureka. The jet stream is way north which is keeping that
bottled up for the time being...extremes for the lower 48 inckuded 93
Thursday in Childress, Texas and 19 this morning at Big Piney, Wyoming.
MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Just before Molly and I took our much beloved
first walk of the morning, I looked out and Jo Jo was running down the
walking track like a miniature white stallion. He is so cute and brilliant
white. No wonder Little Miss Molly is deeply in love with him. Sure glad she
did not see him because she would have created a huge ruckus. Such a
pleasant walk except the grassy area crunches with dryness. I feel sorry for
the Old Crow Motel. The leaves, not that healthy, have turned brown and
shriveled. Don't believe it will be around many more years but zillions of
birds have paused there to rest and chat...on my very first ever walk with
Molly three years ago, two old crows were perched there and they were having
a family fight of the first order. So, we immediately named it the Old Crow
Motel...other than chasing one mocking bird, Molly's blood pressure did not
soar this morning. I was glad to have a peaceful walk because I was
coffeeless. Life goes on with lots and lots of excitement.
