COOLER NIGHTS, LESS HUMID DAYS: We are not saying that you need to grab a sweater, but nighttime temperatures will be noticeably pleasant until they start back upward over the weekend. This morning the temperature dropped as low as 59 in DeSoto State Park, 60 in Hamilton, 61 in Crossville and 63 in Cullman, Wedowee and Winfield. That is about what we are expecting again tonight and tomorrow night. Across Central Alabama the average low should be about 62, but with a few upper 50s in the normally cooler valleys. We also do not see any more near 100-degree heat. Instead, over the next five days highs should range between 89 and 93.
A few showers and maybe a thunderstorm developed over NE Alabama this afternoon. We expect dry weather through Friday but a few isolated showers or thunderstorms could show up again on Saturday.
TROPICAL WEATHER: The National Hurricane Center dispatched a reconnaissance aircraft into a disturbed weather area some 35 miles SW of Cape Lookout, North Carolina this afternoon. They found some gale-force winds on its east side, but it did not have a closed circulation. Therefore, it is not a tropical cyclone at this time. It could develop into a tropical depression or tropical storm any time as it moves north to NNE at 20-25 mph. Coastal North Carolina, Virginia and the Del Marva Peninsula will be affected.
HERE AND THERE: Great Smoky Mountain National Park got a genuine soaking in the last 24 hours with most areas, including Gatlinburg, getting about 1.50 inches of rain. Dry weather is now returning to the mountains...we cannot overemphasize how tough the flooding problem has been along the Atlantic Seaboard. Roanoke received over 4 inches of rain and Harrisburg an additional 4.44 inches...in our nations capitol, the 48-hour total rainfall reached 9.65 inches. Drier air is slowly working into the area and they should get some relief in a day or so depending on what a potential tropical storm off the North Carolina coast decides to do...USA extremes 120 in Death Valley yesterday and 35 this morning at Alamosa, Colorado.
MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: For the first couple of years after Little Miss Molly came to live with us, she would come racing into my weather office every morning as soon as her little paws hit the floor and prop her front feet up on my knee and wag her tail like crazy. She was so glad to see me. Now she strolls in, glances up at me while wagging her tail and then goes on a house-wide inspection trip. We had a very exciting walk. She got to see a young boy that she absolutely adores and also two other small children. She made me stop at 3 houses where she has friends hoping someone would come out and give her a belly rub. This can make our trips last forever, but I do not mind. It makes her so happy. She, in turn, makes me happy. I like being happy and life goes on and on. I wish Molly could live 25 years!
