...Tomorrow An Improved Version Of Today...

A fine Sunday is in progress weather wise across Alabama. If you like
today's weather, you will most certainly enjoy tomorrow's also. In fact, I
will go ahead and upgrade the Perfect Weather Watch for tomorrow to a
Warning. Remember, a Perfect Weather Warning means that you should avail
yourself of every opportunity to get outside and enjoy the beautiful weather
tomorrow with sunny skies, light winds and highs in the upper 70s. Magical.

OUR FORECAST: Perfect weather tonight for area Fall Festivals. Lows will
drop into the middle 40s. Gorgeous tomorrow. Then clouds increase tomorrow
night, becoming mostly cloudy by Tuesday morning. A cold front will
approach the area late on Tuesday, setting off a few showers and storms,
first over Northwest Alabama by afternoon and across the rest of the area
during the overnight. Initial indications are that trick or treating will
be fine. Showers hang out through early Thursday.

NATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS: Still windy, snowy and rainy in parts of the
Northeast. Strong low pressure over southern Canada produced torrential
rains and high winds over New England. Power was out to hundreds of
thousands of customers in the Northeast, including nearly a quarter of a
million in the New York City area alone. Crews are working to restore power
this morning. Mountain snows are expected over the northern Rockies later
today where winter storm warnings have been posted. Much of the west of the
nation is enjoying fine weather on this late October Saturday.

ESPERANZA WILDFIRE: The deadly wildfire that has been burning since early
Thursday in Riverside County, California west of Palm Springs is about 60
percent contained this morning. The deliberately set fire has burned over
24,000 acres and killed four firefighters, making it the deadliest for
firefighters since 2001. Another firefighter was critically injured. The
good news is that the Santa Ana winds have decreased today and higher
humidities will also help bring this fire under control

IN THE TROPICS: A tropical wave south of the island of Hispaniola continues
to move west northwest. It looks a little more organized on satellite
photos and the upper winds are not very strong around the system and there
is some potential that a tropical depression could form. The disturbed
weather is expected to move westward into the southwestern Caribbean, a
favored area for development this time of year. It will not pose a threat
to the United States.

ON THIS DATE IN 2003: KNBC Newsman Chuck Henry nearly lost his life as he
covered the raging California Wildfires. Waiting until the last second to
evacuate as a wall of flames bore down on him, he found that his van would
not start. He was rescued by firefighters.
