EVERYBODY WEARING COATS: At least everybody I saw today was. Good reason. A marked change in our weather from a few days ago. Remember that high of 80 in Tuscaloosa and Montgomery very recently? Big change for today as temperatures this afternoon were hanging out in the mid to upper 30s over North and
Central Alabama with brisk north winds. It felt as cold as a well diggers feet.
The wind will die down during the night. Big question is whether the clouds will move out quickly enough to let our temperature drop to the mid 20s. We are going to stick to our low of 25 for tonight, because it is likely the skies will clear a few hours before daybreak along with diminishing winds. If the clouds are still around tomorrow morning, our low may be closer to 30.
Sunshine returns Saturday and look for a marked warm up over the weekend getting well into the 60s Sunday and Monday. See our day-by-day forecast for details.
SNOWFLAKES: They were seen in a number of communities, mainly west of I-65 today. Just a novelty for Alabamians since we dont see that very often. Had to focus your eyes sharply to see them in most areas. However in NW Alabama, Jamy Mays reported a light dusting in the Winfield/Haleyville area on cars and on rooftops. A few flakes as far south as Shelby County. Chuck Biddinger, a frequent contributor to the 33/40 blog, reported 35 flakes in Roebuck in the NE edge of Birmingham.
GET OUT OF HERE ZETA: A group cheering is in order. Unbelievable tropical system Zeta is becoming discombobulated way out in the middle of the Atlantic away from any land area. It could dissipate overnight. The poor thing spend its whole life at sea.
PROWLING: As much as 2 inches of snow was expected to accumulate today in the higher elevations in the Smoky Mountains...there was already 1 inch on the ground this morning at Newfound Gap and 6 inches atop Mt. LeConte...11 below zero at the west entrance to Yellowstone Park was the coldest in the lower 48...29 below was Alaskas coldest at Chandalar Lake...a very warm 89 Thursday at Santa Ana, California. That is also the same name of a powerful down slope wind that can create havoc with brush fires...Oklahoma still having a big problem with wild fires, mostly in the grasslands.
MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: When Little Miss Molly got home from the Puppy Beauty Shop late yesterday, she quickly curled up on my National Geographic blanket and slept most of the evening. She even turned down a treat. That is an all time record. She was exhausted from staying awake all day and missing her long naps. No playtime at all with her yesterday or today. She has been sleeping most of the time. They treat her extremely well at the beauty shopshe just doesnt get any rest. I will catch up on playtime with her tomorrow. She and I are going to have to work out a timeshare agreement for my recliner. I have just about lost all rights. She has used eminent domain to take my National Geographic blanket but I finally convinced her that she could not take my upscale pillow. Life goes on.
