==================================================================

Did not get quite as cool across North and Central Alabama as
expected, but it was a pleasant morning nevertheless. The cool dry air
never did make it to extreme South Alabama and some showers persisted
across the SE counties today. In fact, there was enough increase in
moisture that some widely separated showers and storms also developed
over the northern counties this afternoon. They were moving slowly and
should dissipate not long after sunset.

Over the next several days, we do not expect any extreme heat, but
there will be just enough moisture available for widely separated
afternoon showers. We do not think there will be very many at all
Saturday and probably our better chance is next Monday.

CHECK OUT THE BIG MOON: Tonight is full moon night and we hope the
clouds will break up enough for you to see the closest and biggest
moon of 2006. Why is that? The moon's orbit is lopsided—one side is
closer to the earth than the other. As the moon goes full tonight, it
will be on the close side making it look a little wider than usual. So
look for an extra wide moon rising in the east.

OUR WORLD OF WEATHER: Interesting note in Bill Murray's weather
calendar entry for September 6. It seems that way back in 1846, a
powerful hurricane carved two inlets in the North Carolina banks that
are still there today. You will recognize the names as Hatteras Inlet
and Oregon Inlet. That happened 160 years ago, so the hurricane did
not have a name…116 in Death Valley was the hottest Wednesday…35 this
morning at Stanley, Idaho and 31 at Gulkana, Alaska…Miami Beach
reports 4.63 inches of rain in the last 24 hours and Jacksonville 3.22
inches. This is not connected with a tropical system.

THE TROPICAL WORLD: Tropical Storm Florence is rather large, but she
has not gained any more strength. She was about 645 miles east of the
Northern Leeward Islands this afternoon and moving WNW at 8 mph.
Sustained winds remain at 50 mph. The official track forecast
continues to curve her northward and passing near or west of Bermuda
on Monday.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Hope you will check the blog for an
interesting lost dog story concerning 33/40 skywatcher, Kim Langston
and her dog, Citgo. Both Kim and her dog were lost for a while, but
there was a great ending…the search goes on for Munchkin. Melissa
Smith is encouraged by several possible sightings lately, including
two possible ones in the North Crestwood area. We sure hope for the
best for Melissa and her family. Numerous people are looking…Little
Miss Molly had two great ballgames last night before turning in and
she had me out walking very early this morning. We met two strangers
on the walking track, but you would think Miss Molly had known them
forever. She never meets a stranger and she is a joy to be around.
Life goes on.
