...A Dusting in Some Areas...

GOOD MORNING! Well, our predicted snow showers did materialize by
mid-afternoon on Saturday as instability levels increased. Some areas
received a dusting from the afternoon and evening activity. Then the
expected upper level disturbance delivered another quick shot of snow to
parts of North and Central Alabama.

TRAVEL CONDITIONS: If you plan to travel across North or Central Alabama
this morning, check road and weather conditions before heading out. Areas
which received extended periods of heavier snow might have snow covered
roads and patches of ice will be common in some areas where moisture froze
on the roads, especially on bridges and overpasses.

MORE SNOW? Sunshine will break through later this morning over most of the
area. Temperatures will rise to near 40 degrees on average across the area.
But skies will become cloudy again during the late afternoon. There could
additional snow showers, especially this evening. No accumulations are
expected.

THE WEEK AHEAD: Temperatures overnight tonight will drop into the middle
20s under clearing skies. Skies on Monday will be mostly sunny, but cold
air will still be flowing into the area. Temperatures will be a few degrees
warmer than today. Winds will shift around to the southwest Monday night,
but temperatures will still drop to near freezing. Tuesday will feature a
good deal of sunshine and much more moderate temperatures. Some showers
will return on Wednesday as moisture levels increase. Slight shower chances
will continue on Thursday, with increased chances on Friday as a cold front
settles in from the north.

NORTHEAST STORM: Blizzard conditions are possible in the New York City
area today, where 12-16 inches of snow could fall.

ON THIS DATE IN 1960: Four to sixteen inches of snow fell across parts of
North Alabama, from Lamar and Marion County northeastward to Madison County.
One fatality and several injures were reported in automobile accidents of
slick highways.

GOOD AFTERNOON: Disappointed snow fans outnumber the snowflakes about two
to one across Central Alabama early on this Saturday afternoon. Hey folks,
no one more disappointed than me. But Alabama winters have been
disappointing me for nearly all of the forty four years I have been on this
planet. Especially when it comes to the prospects for a non-major weekend
snow. Our last fun snow in my books was 1992. And I can't count it as
totally fun because I broke my leg, foot and ankle playing in it. There
were some dusting in the past ten years, but nothing you could call classic.
Tonight we will talk about favorite snow memories over on the blog, so get
ready.

A RAW DAY: Cold air finally began filtering into Central Alabama by
midmorning. Temperatures held steady at 42F from midnight until 7 a.m.
Then the mercury dropped five degrees and stayed there for the next three
hours. Skies over most of the area have been cloudy. But a dry slot that
was rotating around the upper low to our Northwest has been eroding clouds
over a good bit of West and Northwest Alabama. Sunshine will allow
temperatures to warm back into the lower to middle 40s in some areas.
Cloudy locations will stay in the upper 30s to near 40 degrees. It has
become breezy on the back side of the exiting low pressure system, with
northwest winds averaging 10-20 mph. Those winds will die down a bit
tonight, but probably not go completely calm. A disturbance is expected to
pass over the area tonight, and will turn skies back to cloudy and perhaps
shake out a few snowflakes across the area. No significant accumulations
are expected, although a few folks could see a little whitening. The clouds
and wind will keep temperatures from falling much past 27-29 degrees
tonight.

SUNDAY AND BEYOND: I think we will see some clearing by morning, with at
least partial sunshine tomorrow. The temperature forecast for tomorrow will
be problematic. Balancing the additional sunshine against continued flow of
cold air into the area. We will call for highs tomorrow between 40-43
degrees. Skies may turn cloudy again as another disturbance rotates
through. The models hint at a chance of snow flurries again tomorrow night.
Again, nothing to get excited about. Monday morning will probably be the
coldest morning, when temperatures across the area will average 23F. I
thought we might see a few teens, but if we stay cloudy for awhile,
temperatures should stay up enough to prevent that. A warmer pattern will
evolve as we head into the middle of the week.

ON THIS DATE IN 1983: A major snowstorm struck the Mid Atlantic states and
southern New England. Thirty five inches in parts of the Blue Ridge
Mountains of West Virginia at Glen Cary. The 25 inches that fell at
Allentown, Pennsylvania is an all-time record for them. Philadelphia,
Harrisburg and Hartford, Connecticut also set all-time records. At one
point, Allentown received five inches of snow in one hour! Weather people
call it the " Megalopolitan blockbuster snowstorm." In New York City,
street crews were faced with the 18-22 inches of snow dumped on the Big
Apple by the blizzard. They gave it their own name: Earl.

...Are you ready for a Dusting?...

GOOD MORNING: Alright, folks. I have been waiting for a good snow for
quite snow time now. My last good snow was the Storm of the Century in
1993, when 12 inches of snow fell in Birmingham. The year before, a good
Saturday snow dropped about four inches of the white stuff on Birmingham.
It has only been dustings since then, to my recollection. Get ready for
another dusting.

YOUR FORECAST: The low pressure system that brought the rain and snow to
Alabama overnight is really beginning to get wound up. The low is over
Southeast Alabama and Southwest Georgia this morning. Cold air is rushing
into North and Central Alabama on the backside of the low. Fortunately, the
main moisture is moving out to the northeast, but not before the rain had a
chance to change to snow over parts of the area overnight. Accumulations
have been light and travel problems have been minimal.

Skies will remain cloudy and it will become quite windy with temperatures
holding steady in the 30s. In addition, upper level disturbances will
trigger occasional snow showers through Sunday morning. Some areas may pick
up a dusting of snow between now and then. Temperatures overnight tonight
will drop into the middle 20s, with an average low of 26 across the area.

Skies will continue mostly cloudy on Sunday, with temperatures struggling
again to get out of the 30s. In fact, we will likely not see 40 again until
Monday. Temperatures on Sunday night will be 3-5 degrees colder than
tonight with lows Monday morning averaging 23F. Some of the normally colder
valleys will make it into the teens tomorrow morning. The remainder of the
week will feature moderating temperatures with highs returning to near
normal levels. Developing low pressure by late Wednesday may bring showers.

ON THIS DATE IN 2003: Residents of Central Illinois were surprised when
their NOAA Weatheradios began to sound for a severe thunderstorm warning
during a steady snowstorm.  The warning was not a drill, but was put issued
because of thundersnows with strong winds.

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

A WILD WEEKEND RIDE: On the weather wagon, that is, as we go
through a big rain event, possibly some snow and the coldest temperatures so
far this season, especially in the daytime.
Rain was spreading eastward steadily from Louisiana and Mississippi
this afternoon as a low pressure area continues to get all of its eggs in
one basket. That low will track northeastward passing somewhere across
Central Alabama overnight and into Georgia by Saturday morning. That low is
going to have plenty of ammunition. It will bring us widespread soaking rain
tonight with every front and backyard in the state getting wet. Some of the
rain will be locally heavy with parts of the state getting well over one
inch. Some folks will hear thunder.
Now, the other intruder. It is cold air that will spilling into the
state behind the low pressure area. It may bring some measurable snow to the
extreme northern part of the state, mainly across the Tennessee Valley with
some places getting 1 to 3 inches. Down here, along the I-20 corridor which
includes Tuscaloosa, Birmingham and Anniston, we do not think there will be
measurable snow. In fact, little or none tonight as it should be mostly
rain. For Saturday, cold blustery NW winds gusting as high as 30 mph at
times will occur along with occasional snow showers. Those snow showers
could whiten the ground briefly, but we doubt if there will be any travel
problems since temperatures in the middle of the day will edge upward to 36
to 38. Could still be a few snowflakes around Sunday morning, but dry
weather is expected Monday and Tuesday. Temperatures will drop to the low
20s Sunday morning through Tuesday morning.
We, of course, will watch all of this closely in case there is a
change in the track of the low pressure area. One of our weather models
(ugh!) hints that there could be a few flurries down to south of Montgomery.
We doubt that.
A TRAGIC MONTGOMERY TORNADO: Thanks to Chris Howard in the Alabama
ADEM Office for reminding me that Sunday is the 61st anniversary of a tragic
tornado that struck Montgomery in 1945. It was listed as an F3 killing 26
persons and injuring more than 100. 600 buildings, including homes, were
destroyed or damaged.
FRIVOLOUS FRIDAY: Hope you will forgive my fascination with strange
sounding place names, but here are some snow depths from very remote high
country locations in Colorado. Never Summer 52 inches, Lizard Head Pass 34
inches (I ran into heavy snow crossing that pass in mid-August one time),
Whiskey Creek 11 inches, Rough and Tumble 22 inches, Deadman Hill 48
inches...coldest in the lower 48 this morning was 20 below at Watertown, New
York...hottest yesterday 90 in Oxnard, California...near blizzard conditions
upcoming for Boston over the weekend with heavy snow Saturday night and
Sunday.
MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Got several e-mails chastising me for
not mentioning Little Miss Molly in this morning's edition...ran out of
space because of all the pressing weather information. A lot of people have
asked to get their "Molly fix" 7 days a week. That makes me feel real good.
I do the afternoon edition Monday through Friday, but will try to start
posting at least one weekend story about Molly on the 33/40 weather blog.
When you go to that, you will notice a list of categories, click on Ms.
Molly...have had to ignore that little girl all day because of weather work,
but we played with her a lot yesterday. In about three minutes when I finish
this column, I am going to go rushing into the living area with 4 balls in
my hand, toss them in the air and let them land near her. That will drive
her crazy. She owns the living area. Life goes on. -J B. Elliott

...Blustery Weekend...

Here we go on a wild weekend keeping watch on a widespread soaking rain and
the possibility of some wintry precipitation and a very cold and blustery
Saturday.

But first things first. Today will be fairly good, but clouds will be on the
increase. Rain will reach the area at some point late this afternoon and
spread out to become a statewide soaker tonight. Virtually every square inch
of the state will get wet and some areas will receive locally heavy rain.
From about Birmingham southward, you might even hear some thunder tonight.

The big question mark is the exact path of a significant low pressure area
that will track across Alabama tonight and early Saturday morning. That will
determine who will get all rain and who might have some snow mixed in. After
soaking up all the weather models we could and looking at it from every
angle, we think this will happen tonight: extensive rain will occur while
cold air starts spilling into the state from the NW in the wake of the low
pressure area. The rain should change to light snow flurries after midnight
and by daybreak we may have a change over to light snow or flurries as far
south as the Birmingham.

Saturday will be blustery and very cold with occasional light snow or snow
showers. There could be some light accumulations this far south and at least
a dusting.

The cold air will continue to be around on Sunday and there could even be a
few light snow flurries, mainly Sunday morning.
We must emphasize that we will watch the situation very closely later today
for any possible changes. Weather models have not been really consistent on
this storm system.

THE BIG APPLE: This same low pressure area is going to bring a lot of snow
to the NE, including New York and Boston. The heavy snow in NYC will be
Saturday night and Sunday.a few other notes...Thursday was the 113th day in
a row with no rain in Phoenix, even though there were a few sprinkles in the
area...a summer-like 90 degrees in Oxnard, California yesterday.

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

ALABAMA STORY IS ONE OF CHANGES: A variety of weather over the next
several days including some threat of wintry precipitation. The only thing
we cannot offer for the next 5 to 7 days is mild temperatures.

Clear and cold for tonight, but clouds will increase Friday
with some rain reaching the area during the afternoon. That rain will become
widespread Friday night, spreading over the entire state. In fact, it looks
like a general drenching. Over at least the south half of the state, you
will also hear thunder. The only fly in the ointment is that colder air will
be spilling down into the state Friday night and Saturday morning. Timing is
going to be crucial as to how fast it gets cold and how fast most of the
rain moves out. We believe that the rain will change over to light snow or
flurries after midnight Friday night. We don't think there will be
accumulations along the I-20 corridor, such as Tuscaloosa, Birmingham and
Anniston, but there could be some light accumulation further north.

Why all this foul weather? A major low pressure area will form and
track NE. It will move directly across Alabama Friday night. One of our
weather models brings it right across the center of the state, which would
lessen the threat of snow. The other one carries it further south. Our
forecast is sort of a compromise between the two.

You won't enjoy being outside Saturday as NW winds gust as high as
30 mph at times and highs only reach the mid and upper 30s. There will also
be some lingering flurries. See our forecast for all of the details.

COVERING A LOT OF BASES: 9 inches was the amount of snow in the
higher elevations of the Great Smoky Mountains this morning...2 inches in
Gatlinburg...that region will get more snow starting Friday night and
continuing Saturday...26 below was the coldest in Alaska this morning at
Point Lay...13 below in International Falls, Minnesota for the lower 48...90
was the summer-like temperature at several Southern California locations
yesterday...today is the anniversary of the formation of the U. S. Weather
Bureau. It happened on this date way back in 1870...a few snowflakes were
noted this morning in several North Alabama locations, but not enough to get
excited about...snow forecasting is not easy anywhere. On this date in 1969,
20 inches of snow fell in New York City with drifts up to 20 feet. It became
known as the Lindsay Snowstorm because of the political fallout when
portions of the city were still not plowed a week after the storm. Original
forecasts did not call for accumulation. 800 cars were stranded on just one
of New York's bridges.

STORM ALERT IS TONIGHT: The second stop on the tour is at Homewood
High School at 7:00 p.m. It is essential that you get there early to get a
good seat. The entire 33/40 weather team will be there with lots of great
weather stories.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Sometimes I wonder if Little Miss
Molly wishes she could have come to a different home where she could get
some regular sleep. Our sleeping hours keep the little girl mixed up, but
she clearly loves us and that is what counts. Last night when we went to get
her off the couch to put her to bed, she was sound asleep with all four feet
sticking straight up. She moaned and groaned like crazy when we moved her.
Out on the walking track this morning, for the first time ever, Molly paid
close attention to a fluffy cumulus cloud. At the time, I was running down
the track with her. She was looking up and running and almost collided with
a tree. Life goes on regardless of how much sleep we get.

there, we should mention that today will be dry and cool, with ample
sunshine and highs in the mid 40s. Clouds will begin to return tomorrow.

WINTER STORM? Models now agree a significant surface low will form near
Mobile tomorrow evening. This feature should spread precipitation over all
of Alabama tomorrow night. Initially, for Central Alabama, the precipitation
should fall in the form of rain. Then, late tomorrow night, as the surface
low moves over far South Alabama and colder air is pulled southward, we
expect the rain to change to snow. For now, we are projecting one to two
inches of snow over much of Central Alabama, but there should be a strip of
heavier snow involved. For the moment it looks like that strip could be
close to U.S. 278, or a line from Hamilton to Cullman to Gadsden. Some
travel problems are possible by early Saturday morning.

The snow will taper off to flurries Saturday, but very cold air moves into
the state. Temperatures will have a hard time reaching 40 degrees with
clouds lingering much of the day.

If the sky clears Saturday night, we have a good chance of reaching the
upper teens early Sunday. And, Monday morning could be just as cold. This
will be the coldest air we have seen so far this season.

Remember, all of this could change. Winter weather forecasting in Alabama is
very difficult!
