VERY PLEASANT WEATHER COMING UP: Just what the doctor ordered—a
widespread rain event in Alabama overnight and today, especially
across the north and central portions. It was a big plus that it was a
long drawn out steady rain. Numerous counties got a good soaking and
this is exactly the type rain event everyone has been asking for.

At mid afternoon, rain was still widespread, especially over a large
part of North and Central Alabama. The thick cloud cover and steady
rain held afternoon temperatures into the 60s over much of North
Alabama. It was not too long ago that we were fretting over 95-102
temperatures.

A cool front will be coming through Alabama tonight and tomorrow
morning. This will put an end to the rain and usher in some of the
nicest weather you could honestly ask for. By tomorrow afternoon, most
places will be getting sunshine. Thursday, all the way through the
weekend, should be mostly sunshine and cool nights and much lower
humidity. We expect upper 50s Thursday and Friday mornings. Could even
have some lows near 52 in the North Alabama valleys. Looks great for
Friday night high school football and Saturday college football.

We want to list some rainfall amounts so far today. They are
very impressive: 3.30 inches near Winfield, 2.00 in Fayette, 1.03 in
Riverchase (33/40 studios).

THE TROPICAL WORLD: Florence was more than 600 miles SW of Cape
Race, Newfoundland losing her tropical bloodline and will pass just SE
of Newfoundland in the next day or so. Tropical Storm Gordon was 490
miles NNE of the Leeward Islands. He should curve north over the open
Atlantic and take a track even further east than Florence. TD #8 was
way out in the Eastern Atlantic and will probably take a more
southerly track.

OUR WEATHER WORLD: A cold 19 degrees this morning at Swan Lake,
Montana for the national low…it was 25 at West Yellowstone, Montana
and the hottest yesterday was 112 in Death Valley.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Sure lucky to get in a full half-mile
walk with Little Miss Molly before the steady rain started. No sooner
than we were out the door than she heard a familiar voice. It was
Jo-Jo. We had not seen him in months. He is that beautiful white dog
that lives on the other side of the hedgerow that Molly wanted to
marry. She could not see him until I picked her up and showed her to
Jo-Jo through an opening in the hedgerow. She got so excited she was
shaking…I put her down and we headed north. The community cat came
flying out of the hedgerow like a bullet and shot up a tree. Sure glad
Molly did not see that. Life goes on.
