...Dry Week Ahead...

Our fine spate of October weather will continue for the next several
days as the tenth month lives up to its billing as a dry and
seasonably mild month. There are some interesting topics to cover, so
let's get to it.

FIRE DANGER THIS AFTERNOON: Drier air is filtering into Alabama on
easterly winds. As relative humidities drop this afternoon, we will
be watching carefully for an enhanced wildfire danger. Winds will be
a little light and temperatures a little mild for a Red Flag Warning,
but the fire danger will be high, so take it easy with any outdoor
burning.

LIGHT FROST TONIGHT? That drier air will allow for some cooler
temperatures tonight. Readings will drop well into the 40s overnight,
with a few 30s in the normally colder locations of North Alabama. A
little light frost is not out of the question, but unlikely.

THE WORK WEEK: High pressure is centered over the Ohio River Valley
to the north of Alabama this morning. This position is producing the
easterly winds over the state. This will keep us dry and seasonably
mild with a good supply of sunshine. By Wednesday, the high will
consolidate over the Carolinas. As it does, moisture levels will come
up just a bit. We still should see partly cloudy skies at best by
then. By Thursday, a cool front will dive southeastward and pass
through the state, but it will be dry. It will deliver a reinforcing
shot of cool, dry air for Friday and Saturday. Another front will
approach on Sunday, but it looks like it will be moisture starved.

NEXT STORM SYSTEM: After the second dry front passes through, high
pressure will build in for the next week. This high pressure will
eventually set up offshore in the Atlantic by the end of that week,
and the moisture fetch into the Southeast will be impressive. This
will set the stage for a
good rain and storm event by the weekend of the 10th.

NOEL: The fourteenth tropical storm of the 2007 North Atlantic
Hurricane Season formed yesterday in the Caribbean south of
Hispaniola. The storm is moving northwest toward southeastern Cuba.
Extremely torrential rains are a huge problem over Hispaniola, Jamaica
and eastern Cuba. The jury is not in yet on the eventual track. It
could move westward along the southern coast of Cuba, or it could turn
more northward and pass out over the Bahamas. Everything depends on a
predicted weakness to the north of the storm. Some strengthening is
possible today, and Noel could become a hurricane at some point before
it exits stage right over the Atlantic. A note on the pronunciation:
Noel is pronounced "knoll."

ON THIS DATE IN 2003: KNBC Newsman Chuck Henry nearly lost his life
as he covered the raging California Wildfires. Waiting until the last
second to evacuate as a wall of flames bore down on him, he found that
his van would not start. He was rescued by firefighters.
