...Happy Halloween...

NEW DAY, OLD FORECAST: No real change in the Alabama weather picture
today. Sunshine in full supply, and a nice warm-up after another chill
start. Most communities will wind up in the mid 70s this afternoon..
For trick or treaters this evening, the weather will be close to
perfect with a clear sky and temperatures falling through the 60s
during the 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. time frame.

TOMORROW THROUGH THE WEEKEND: A dry cold front passes through the
state tomorrow; winds will increase out of the northwest behind the
front, and another shot of cool and dry air will settle in here by
Friday and the weekend. Afternoon highs will be in the 68 to 72 degree
range, with early morning lows well down in the 40s. Needless to say,
great weather for the final night of the regular high school football
season in Alabama Friday night. Concerning the college games...
LSU will be at Alabama for a 4:00 p.m. kick off Saturday and Southern
Miss at UAB for a 6:00 p.m. start. Earlier in the afternoon, Tennessee
Tech will be at Auburn for their homecoming game which starts at 1:30.
Mostly clear dry weather for all those games. It will be about 72 in
Tuscaloosa at kick off dropping into the 60s. It will be in the low
70s for most of the game at Auburn and for UAB it will be about 68 at
kick off lowering to the upper 50s.

LONG RANGE: The GFS model shows a cold front passing through Alabama
on Tuesday of next week, but with very limited moisture significant
rain doesn't look likely. A stronger system will have better potential
for rain and thunderstorms around November 10, but keep in mind there
is little skill in a specific weather forecast beyond seven days, so
that could change.

TROPICS: Tropical storm Noel will move through the Bahamas today,
tonight and tomorrow with lots of wind and rain. The system is now
about 250 miles south of
Nassau in the Bahamas, and is packing sustained winds of around 40
mph. Some of the heavier rain bands could move onshore over extreme
Southeast Florida, but the core of Noel will remain east of Miami. The
system will pick up forward speed as it turns to the northeast
tomorrow night, pushing it out to sea. No impact at all on Alabama.

COMET HOLMES: Skywatchers throughout the Northern Hemisphere report
the newly visible Comet Holmes is a remarkable sight even under city
lights. The comet, described in glowing terms by many observers,
should continue to be visible to the naked eye for at least the next
few weeks. Only a couple comets each decade are this easy to see. You
can find Comet Holmes by using the "W" of Cassiopeia as your guide.
The five stars in a conspicuous zigzag pattern are high in the
northeast sky during the mid-evening hours. If you have binoculars,
you'll know the comet immediately when you see it: a small, albeit
distinct, circular lemon-yellow cloud of light. A small telescope will
help bring out the fuzzy details. (from Space.com).
