BAD WEATHER NORTH AND SOUTH: This afternoon all of us in the weather
department feel like our heads are on a swivel, because we are having
to watch bad weather both north and south. First, here in Alabama, a
line of strong to severe thunderstorms that formed over North
Mississippi moved into North and West Alabama. The NWS issued a Severe
Thunderstorm Watch that goes until 9:00 tonight for areas as far south
as Cullman, Oneonta and Gadsden.

This does not mean that some strong thunderstorms will not affect the
rest of Central Alabama. Much of the area will be affected later on
this afternoon and tonight, especially through the evening.

We expect scattered thunderstorms again Wednesday as high
temperatures back off a few degrees. By Thursday and Friday , we look
for only widely separated storms and by Saturday you probably won't
see any.

Tropical Storm Ernesto, as he moves north closer to the Atlantic
coast, will actually pull down some drier and slightly cooler air into
Alabama. This will lower our humidity some for the weekend and drop
low temperatures over North and Central Alabama to between 65 and 68.
Starting tomorrow, highs should stay away from 90.

THE TROPICS: A tragedy continued to unfold a year ago today after
Katrina had already devastated coastal Louisiana, the Mississippi
coast, as well as Dauphin Island and the coast of Mobile County in
Alabama. By mid-afternoon, the center was passing through East
Mississippi and Meridian was getting gusts to 82 mph.

Today we are watching Tropical Storm Ernesto. He moved off the north
coast of Cuba this morning and was becoming better organized. He will
make landfall in the Florida Keys and extreme South Florida tonight
and then move northward through Eastern Florida, out into the Atlantic
for a while and back on shore in South Carolina. Tremendous amount of
rain is going to be a big problem near and east of the path.

OUR WORLD OFWEATHER: It was great that the high was only 83
yesterday in Dallas-Ft. Worth…hottest in the country was 117 in Death
Valley…some cold spots this morning, Yellowstone National Park with
35, Eagle, Alaska 27.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Have not played even one minute with
Little Miss Molly today. We took her to the PBS (Puppy Beauty Shop)
early this morning. She just got home at mid-afternoon. She looks so
cute with her shorter hair and she smells good—like a perfumed young
lady. With her shorter hair, her eyes look even larger and that is bad
for me, because she can get anything she wants. I do not mind—it is an
enjoyable life. Too much noise at the PBS, so she will probably sleep
for hours—then a huge ball game. I will be ready.
