...Cool Saturday..

Wasn't that perfect sleeping weather this morning? With the windows
open and temperatures mostly in the 40s (there were just a few 30s
around the landscape also) it was a great morning for a light blanket.
Look for a repeat performance tomorrow morning. Yippee!

THE ALABAMA WEATHER STORY: Skies were a brilliant blue across
Central sections. But from Cullman County north into the Tennessee
Valley, dense fog was slow to burn off during the morning hours.
Temperatures were still struggling toward 60 at the noon hour across
North and Central Alabama, especially in areas where fog has been
particularly thick. A disturbance pulling northeastward out of the
Great Lakes is dragging a southward moving cold front our way. It
won't be noticeable, delivering only a refreshing reinforcing shot of
seasonably cooler and dry air. Tomorrow will feature a sunny, cool
start, with less in the way of the pesky status we saw this morning.
After a start in the 40s, readings will climb to near 70 again with
just a few clouds developing during the day. Look for more of that to
continue through the coming week as high pressure remains in charge of
our weather. It looks like our next significant rain chance will not
come until the second full week of November.

TROPICS: 90L: The surface low in the Caribbean is located south of
the Dominican Republic today, heading to the west. It is designated
90L by the NHC. It is still undergoing too much wind shear for
development, but that shear is lessening. It may become a tropical
depression tomorrow. There is significant agreement among several of
the models that we could see a tropical storm in the western
Caribbean. It could remain over the western Caribbean, or it could
sweep to the northeast, perhaps affecting South Florida. It is
interesting to note that the GFS pays this system very little
attention and gives it no billing. Air Force Recon crews are on
standby for tomorrow if an investigation is deemed necessary by the
Hurricane Center.

AKEELAH AND THE BEE: If you have not seen this 2006 film, stop what
you are doing and go rent it. It is a fictional story, but there are
powerful messages in there, and I can guarantee that you will be
moved. (It's currently showing on a prominent premium cable movie
channel also, by the way.)

JUST ONE YEAR AGO: In a story that could be taken from today's
headlines, over 1,700 firefighters were battling the deadliest
wildfire in the U.S. in five years in Riverside County, California.
Less than twenty miles west of Palm Springs, the deliberately set fire
was burning through its second day. Aided by hot, dry Santa Ana
winds, the fire burned at least forty square miles. Four firefighters
had perished the day before, and a fifth was critically injured as
they tried to save a house. Rewards totaling $500,000 were posted for
the arrest and conviction of any individuals involved in setting the
inferno. The new DC-10 Supertanker plane was used to battle the fire.
