...Fourteen Shopping Days Left...

Have you gotten your Christmas shopping done? It is about time for me
to get started. Tonight will be a good time to get a little done,
with dry and fairly mild conditions. Tuesday night…not so good.
Decent again on Wednesday. Not sure about Thursday. The weekend…all
right. Then not so good the following week, at least Monday through
Thursday. And it might not be perfect right up until Christmas Day.
That's your handy dandy holiday shopping forecast.

WHITE CHRISTMAS? So, the shopping weather might be going down hill,
but the good news is, no really cold air is in sight. Of course, a
little snow for Christmas couldn't be a bad thing, but don't get your
hopes up.

HOLIDAY WEEK PEEK: First, there is the Papa John Bowl at Legion
Field on the 23rd…looks like weather for that could be good. Of
course, it is a bit far out. Then Christmas Eve looks like it could
be showery, with those showers continuing into Christmas Day. Not a
real washout, but could be on the damp and cloudy side.

BACK TO THE PRESENT: That was a pretty significant little disturbance
yesterday. Today, partly cloudy skies will prevail and will a good
amount of sunshine, temperatures will warm into the lower 60s.
Moisture levels are on a steady rise, and so will the cloud cover by
tonight. It will be positively balmy tonight, with lows in the lower
50s. A warm front will move through overnight and we will be in the
warm sector of a developing low pressure system over Iowa by tomorrow
morning. Showers will be on the increase during the day tomorrow. By
evening, a line of showers and storms will be pushing toward West
Alabama. It looks like there could be a chance of severe weather to
our northwest, over western Tennessee, but it does not appear likely
here.

MIDWEEK AND BEYOND: Yesterday morning, the GFS hinted at additional
low pressure development over South Alabama on Thursday, but that was
discounted in the afternoon run. If it does happen, there could be
rain on Thursday, especially over southeastern sections. But for now,
we will discount that possibility. We will call for sunny to partly
cloudy conditions starting Thursday and continuing into the weekend.
Our rain chances will be on the increase by Monday into the following
week.

JAPAN'S FIRST F4 TORNADO: When you think about tornadoes, you don't
usually think about Japan. On December 11, 1990, a powerful low
pressure system spawned two supercell thunderstorms in Chiba
Prefecture southeast of Tokyo, Japan. Two tornadoes were spawned by
the storm. One struck Mobara, is the first violent (F4) tornado
recorded in the country. It caused the most damage from a Japanese
tornado since 1960. The tornado injured 78 people and damaged over
1,000 homes. Japan's deadliest tornado struck a town on Hokkaido on
November 7, 2006, killing nine.
