ABC 33/40 E-FORECAST
Afternoon Edition For Friday November 10, 2006

====================================================
LOOKING FOR AN ALARM SYSTEM?
CALL PRESTIGE ALARMS--WE ARE DIFFERENT.
GIVE US A CHANCE!

Prestige Alarm specializes in monitoring security systems
without the use of expensive phone lines or unreliable cell phones.

How do we do this? Prestige Alarm is one of the few companies
who monitors with an UL listed FCC licensed radio network.
In a typical system, if your phone line is cut or fails,
then you have no communication to the outside world.

Since we do not use phone lines, we can still dispatch the
fire or police when the emergency requires. Despite cut
phone lines, storms or over worked cell phones, we still
get the signal through.

We do not offer the free systems like some of the other
security companies. But you do not want to trust in free
equipment to protect the people who are close to you.

Call Prestige Alarm today to get the best alarm for your
home. Ask for Eddie or Amie. 205.956.4811

CHANCE OF SHOWERS BY DAYBREAK: We don't expect an all-day rain
Saturday, but showers may reach Central Alabama by daybreak. They
should continue off and on through most of the morning and possibly
into the early afternoon. There could also be a few thunderstorms.
This will not be a heavy rain event like we have become accustomed to
lately.

It will be a lot cooler Saturday as compared to today. The wind will
be shifting around to the NW early in the morning with speeds during
the day of 10 to 20 mph. Highs will do good to reach the lower 60s. It
should be clearing late in the day. This will permit Saturday night
temperatures to fall into the mid 30s. Sunday should be all sunshine.
Clouds will increase late Monday with some more showers late in the
day or Monday night. Tuesday will bring our best chance of rain and
possibly some fairly strong thunderstorms. This goes to show you what
the weather can be like in November.

We are also in the midst of our secondary severe weather season. Four
years ago today two long track tornadoes struck in West Alabama. One
stayed on the ground for 44 miles and struck Carbon Hill in NW Walker
County destroying the school. The other one was 73 miles long with a
path parallel to the first one. Some of the towns hit were Carbon
Hill, Curry and Saragosa. There was a total of 12 fatalities that day.

FOOTBALL WEATHER: For high school playoff games tonight and also for
the UAB-UTEP game at Legion Field, it should be fair with about 72 at
kickoff and falling into the 60s. Georgia will be at Auburn for an
11:30 kickoff Saturday. Around 68 at kickoff and remaining in the 60s
with a slight chance of showers. For the Alabama-LSU game in Baton
Rouge Saturday night, fair dry weather is expected with about 64
degrees at kickoff, but dropping to near 50 by the end of the game.

STORM ALERT XTREME: Don't forget—tomorrow is the day. Be at the
BJCC. It starts at 9:30 and goes until 3:00 pm. Two sessions of storm
spotter training, including an advanced session in the afternoon. By
coming to that, you can also be admitted free to the International
Auto Show. The weather people will be in meeting room A. If you can,
get there at 8:30 for some friendly get-acquainted chats. I hope to be
there also.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: I got so mesmerized by the
Louisville-Rutgers football game last night that Little Miss Molly
gave up getting any playtime. She curled up on my National Geographic
blanket and slept through most of the game. But in the 4th quarter she
erupted into a vicious frenzy running through the house. It seems that
she just has to blow off the energy. A very pleasant walk today.
Nature is so pretty at this time. There has just got to be some way we
can alter the axis of the earth to where it is autumn in Alabama for
at least 6 months of the year. Nice part about this time of year, my
second favorite season follows immediately, and that is winter. Don't
think Molly ever looks at the calendar. Every day for her is eat,
sleep and play. This morning, she seized my recliner and slept for
nearly 6 hours. Life goes on....
