...Perfect Parade Perfection...

A salute to all of our veterans out there on this Veterans Day 2007
from the Weather Department. Thanks for all that you have done for
our country and the world. A nice day weather wise is our little
contribution to the cause. And in the city that is famous for the
oldest and best Veterans Day celebration, tomorrow's parade will
feature nearly perfect conditions. I can remember being let out of
school early as a kid to go to the Veterans Day Parade in downtown
Birmingham, then coming home to play football in the yard, because the
Alabama/Auburn football game was just around the corner. You were
either Johnny Musso or Pat Sullivan (I am dating myself here.)
Usually the weather would be on the cool side, with sunny skies.
Tomorrow will be mild and partly cloudy with highs in the lower 70s.

THE WEEK AHEAD High pressure will remain in control of our weather
through Tuesday. Moisture to our west and passing disturbances in a
west northwesterly flow will give us patchy clouds at times, but we
should remain dry through at least much of Tuesday. A weakening
disturbance should take advantage of the high weakening to give us a
chance of showers by Wednesday. These chances should diminish on
Thursday, but a stronger disturbance will push

HOLIDAY SNEAK PEEK: After next weekend's front passes, we should see
a weak ridge build in over Alabama. This ridge will hold through the
start of the holiday week. A big trough to the west of Alabama will
begin to influence our weather by Wednesday of that week, with
increasing showers for Thanksgiving. That would be something to be
thankful for. There are signs that a strong system will arrive on the
weekend after Thanksgiving. This could give us a good shot of rain
and storms in the Sunday/Monday time frame, followed by a change to
colder. That system could make for travel nightmares for the nation's
midsection.

TROPICS: The 2007 North Atlantic Hurricane Season is winding down
toward a November 30th ending. The tropics are rather inactive this
morning. The only feature is a weak low pressure area over the
southwestern Caribbean. It shows little organization and will move
inland over Central America before any development can occur. Fifteen
named storms have occurred this year (a couple were a little dubious,
including one subtropical storm and one tropical storm that probably
was never more than a depression. So the numbers a re a little above
average, but it is hard to say it is an active season, with very few
large and powerful storms and one U.S. landfall. The GFS is hyping
any tropical systems during the next two weeks.

ON THIS DATE IN 1995: A significant high wind event in Colorado on
November 11-12, 1995. Strong downslope winds gusted to 124 mph at the
National Center for Atmospheric Research on the mesa in Boulder CO.
Utility poles and power lines were downed leaving several hundred
homes without power in Boulder, where windows were also blown out of
cars. Other reports of strong wind gusts included: 104 mph atop Squaw
Mountain, west of Denver, 99 mph in Golden Gate Canyon, 85 mph on
Rocky Flats, and 69 mph at Jefferson County Airport.
