========================================

SUNSHINE RETURNS TOMORROW: We were blessed with much lighter winds
today, but still the weather was not fit for dogs, cats, birds or gift
returners. The old thermometer struggled all day long and did not want
to move. However, most areas had 40s this afternoon. A nice thick
blanket of clouds prevented it from getting any warmer. Those clouds
will break up tonight and it should be clear by late tonight and
tomorrow morning. This will permit the temperature to drop to near 28.
This is going to be one of those nights when the low could either be
26 or 35 depending on how stubborn the clouds hang on. Look for mostly
sunshine Wednesday and Thursday, although clouds will increase
Thursday night. A warming trend starts tomorrow.

A FOCUS ON THE WEEKEND: Everything is not sealed in stone yet, but we
want to give you a preliminary heads up for what could happen this
weekend. By Friday morning, another major low pressure area will be
scrambling to get itself together in the Central Plains. By Saturday
morning, the intense low will be near Tulsa with a cold front swinging
southward to near New Orleans. The pressure gradient will be sharp
enough to give us some strong south winds Saturday, even with no
thunderstorms. However, it looks like a line of possibly intense
thunderstorms could cross Central Alabama Saturday morning. The Storm
Prediction Center has an outlook for possible severe weather Friday
and Saturday and possibly into Sunday all the way from East Texas and
SE Oklahoma eastward to the Georgia-South Carolina coast. This
includes all of Alabama and nearby states.

FOOTBALL WEATHER: A bit too early to give you a forecast for the
Cotton Bowl on January 1, which features Auburn and Nebraska, but we
can give you a forecast for Thursday's Independence Bowl in Shreveport
between Alabama and Oklahoma State. There will be a slight chance of
showers and thunderstorms during the game. The temperature should peak
at about 66. The kickoff is at 3:30.

THE WORLD OF WEATHER: 11 below zero at Antero Reservoir Colorado was
the coldest in the lower 48…it was 33 below at Huslia,
Alaska…interesting to note that one of the stations that we watch
closely in winter in the Yukon of NW Canada, was reporting a
relatively mild 16 above zero this afternoon.. Denver still has 15
inches of snow on the ground and Ft. Collins 13 inches.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Poor Little Miss Molly. She is still
recovering from a rash of company and more grandkids will be here
shortly. She is truly a creature of habit. She does not like for her
routine to be disrupted. I believe she has taken a time-management
course, doggie version. I have not had a ball game with her in five
days. Please don't tell her majority owner that I bootlegged one
sausage ball to Molly. She absolutely loves them. She smacked her lips
for 15 minutes. I had to look away. I could not look her in the eye
because she wanted more. Life goes on
