...Dry And Pleasant Weather Continues...

If you enjoyed the weather yesterday, you should like today's forecast for
Alabama. Dry air continues to cover the state, and we expect a good supply
of sunshine today through scattered clouds. The humidity will remain low,
and most spots will rise to near 80 degrees this afternoon. Clouds will
increase tonight, however, in advance of a strong upper air short wave and a
surface cold front.

A SHOWER TOMORROW? While the moisture and instability will be very limited,
we will mention the chance of a brief shower or thunderstorm during the day
tomorrow as the front passes through the state. The best chance of a shower
will be along and north of I-20, while the southern two-thirds of the state
will probably remain dry. The sky will be occasionally cloudy tomorrow as
the front moves through, and winds will increase out of the west during the
day, shifting to the northwest by late afternoon.

A new surge of cooler and drier will roll into the state following the
front, and on Friday temperatures will have a hard time reaching the low
70s, even with sunshine in full supply. Early morning temperatures should be
in the 40s both Friday and Saturday morning.

WEEKEND PEEK: Saturday promises to be a nice day to wrap up the month of
September with a partly sunny sky and very comfortable temperatures. On
Sunday, a passing disturbance will bring some clouds, but for the moment the
chance of any really significant rain looks fairly small thanks to very
limited moisture.

WARMER DAYS: Long range computer guidance suggests next week will feature
warm temperatures as an upper air ridge builds across Alabama and the Deep
South; even a chance some communities in West Alabama will touch the 90
degree mark.

TROPICS: A disturbance about 800 miles northeast of the Leeward Islands has
a chance to become a tropical depression over the next day or so, but it is
in a position where it will recurve into the open Atlantic, and will not
impact the U.S. mainland. There are a few more disorganized waves across the
Atlantic basin, but nothing that seems to be ready to grow into anything
significant at this time. The hurricane season runs through the end of
November, and you can have major hurricanes well into October, so we will
have to keep an eye on the tropical water despite the quiet season so far.
The water in the Gulf of Mexico remains warm and undisturbed; the sea water
temperature at Pensacola Beach last night was a warm 83.5 degrees (F).

ROAMING: A large percentage of the nation was rain-free yesterday thanks to
dry air covering a large chunk of North America. A few surge of chilly air
is moving into the northern part of the nation; International Falls,
Minnesota will have a hard time reaching the 50 degree mark by Friday. The
hottest place in the nation yesterday was Death Valley, California with 105
degrees.
