...Cold Nights Ahead...

One cold night down, two more to go. And tonight will be even colder
than last night with lighter winds allowing the mercury to fall into
the lower 20s in many locations. To mention it, today will be on the
chilly side also, with afternoon readings today not making it out of
the 40s. Tomorrow won't be much better, with highs in the lower 50s.
After a very brief moderation on Wednesday back to near normal levels
for this time of year, more cool air is headed our way for the end of
the week and the weekend.

THE WEEK AHEAD: Mostly sunny conditions will prevail today and
tomorrow. Skies will become partly cloudy on Wednesday as winds shift
around to southwesterly and temperatures edge back up into the upper
50s in the afternoon. But another cold front will already be heading
out way by then, and it should arrive late Wednesday night. The
airmass behind that boundary will be a lot like our current one, and
temperatures may well edges back into the 20s at night. Big high
pressure over the Upper Midwest will dive into the Deep South through
the end of the week, and that will keep the fly in the ointment at
bay.

THE FLY: A disturbance over South Texas will be diving around the
periphery of the big high as we head toward the weekend. It is the
classic winter weather battle here in Alabama: a cold air mass and a
low in the Gulf. When they come together perfectly, it can produce a
winter wonderland. It just has been a long time since we had a winter
wonderland here in Central Alabama. It does not look like this one
will be the one. Any precipitation will be shunted well south of
Alabama, it appears.

FAST FORWARD: By next Sunday, we will already be seeing signs of
Alabama's next weathermaker forming to our west. By Monday morning,
low pressure will be near Abilene, Texas. It will spread rain and
storms into Alabama on Tuesday. Then be on the lookout for voodoo
land around the 19th, when we could deal with another storm system.

ON THIS DATE IN 1886: Heavy snow fell on parts of the South and
southern Appalachians on the 4th through the 6th. Montgomery recorded
their greatest snow of record when eleven inches fell. An amazing
twenty five inches fell in Rome, Georgia and thirty three inches fell
in Asheville, North Carolina..

LONDON'S GREAT FOG: The morning of the 4th of December in 1952 was
beautiful and chilly. But it would quickly turn deadly as high
pressure caused the atmosphere over London to stagnate. By the 5th,
a thick "fog" covered the city. Residents started to complain of a
burning sensation in their throats. Soon, everything was covered with
a dirty layer of soot. Visibility dropped to zero. Hundreds of
people were admitted to hospitals because of respiratory distress.
Over 4,000 people died. Other major toxic fogs affected the city in
December 1873, January 1880 and in 1892, but the 1952 is London's
worst ever smog event.

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
