...A Benign Weekend Weather Pattern...

SHOWERS REMAIN HARD TO FIND: The Alabama weather pattern won't change
much through the weekend. While we can't rule out the chance of a few
showers on a daily basis, they will remain widely scattered. The
chance of any one spot getting wet today, tomorrow, and Sunday is
about one in five, and the best chance of a shower will be over the
western third of the state where the moisture will be a little
deeper. Afternoon temperatures will remain a little above normal for
early September in Alabama; the high each day will be somewhere
between 89 and 92 degrees for most communities.

A CHANGE NEXT WEEK: A nice surge of chilly, Canadian air will drop
down into the Plains and the Midwest next week, and the cold front
ahead of that airmass should give Alabama a general increase in the
number of showers and thunderstorms by Tuesday and Tuesday night.
Then, we have a chance that some of that cooler air will slip into
the northern third of Alabama during the latter half of the week.
Looks like some North Alabama cities will drop into the 50s by
Thursday and Friday morning of next week. That, of course, is under
the assumption that the surface front makes it as far south as
Montgomery, which the models are now suggesting.

TROPICAL ACTION: While the disturbance in the Atlantic northeast of
the Bahamas has been seriously struggling in recent days, the wind
shear over the system is expected to vanish today, which should open
the door for an increase in organization, and possible development
into a tropical storm. The disturbance should move very close to the
coast of North Carolina by Sunday, and it is not far fetched to think
that the system might even be a hurricane at that time. It will move
northward, and then turn more eastward by early next week, out to sea
again. For now it looks like the greatest threat of a tropical storm
or hurricane will come in the general area from Charleston to
Baltimore, but the North Carolina coast seems to have the best chance
for now.

FOOTBALL WEATHER: For tonight's high school games across Alabama,
there is only a small risk of a shower for any one stadium, and the
kickoff temperature should be in the low to mid 80s, falling to near
80 by the end of the games.

Tomorrow, Alabama travels to Nashville to play the Vanderbilt
Commodores (the kickoff is at 11:34 a.m.)… the sky will be partly
sunny with just an outside chance of a shower during the game. The
kickoff temperature will be near 86 degrees. Auburn will host South
Florida tomorrow night at Jordan-Hare Stadium; the sky should be
mostly fair with little if any chance of rain. The temperature will
be close to 81 degrees at kickoff. And, UAB will be in Tallahassee to
play Florida State at 4:00 p.m… the sky should be generally sunny
with a kickoff temperature of 90 degrees. At this time we do not see
any significant chance of rain for that game.
