...Several Days of Pleasant Weather...
WEATHER MORE USER FRIENDLY: I think every person in the state of
Alabama was pleased, when they dashed out to get the morning paper, at
how genuinely good the weather felt. It is getting the time of year
when these little cool air intrusions will come more often and be more
pronounced.
This one is especially timely, because we all need a break from
fighting hurricanes and tropical storms.
Early this morning temperatures dropped as low as the 50s over parts
of North Alabama. Here are some of the most enjoyable ones:
53 Albertville
55 Meridianville
56 Hamilton
57 Scrougout, Remlap, Muscle Shoals
58 Crossville, Springville/Simmons Mountain
59 Pinson, Decatur, Cottondale, Centreville, Vigo, McCalla
Most other lows were in the low to mid 60s, even near the coast. It
was 64 in Mobile and Fairhope and 66 at Gulf Shores and Coden. The
warmest overnight low was 71 on Dauphin Island.
We look for lows to be in the upper 50s again tonight and low 60s the
rest of the week. High temperatures all week will be generally between
81 and 83. The humidity will stay low until a few showers arrive late
Saturday or Sunday.
HURRICANE CLEAN UP WEATHER: It is amazing how the weather has calmed
for almost the entire country. The only thunderstorms we could find
this afternoon were in the Eastern Carolinas and SE Virginia. Let's
look in on Houston and Galveston, because if there is any place that
needs a weather break, it is that part of SE Texas. Galveston is
expecting dry weather through Thursday with some scattered showers
showing up Friday and over the weekend. No threat of tropical storms
during that period and temperatures will not be oppressively hot.
Right after the hurricane, it was still hot with very high dew points—
almost unbearable for a lot of people going through the very worst
time of their life. I still fear that the death toll will rise
considerably more, especially in the Houston/Galveston area.
GLOBAL ROAMING: Some of the cold temperatures this morning included
16 at Anaktuvuk Pass Alaska. 27 at Stanley, Iowa, 29 in Yellowstone
National Park and 25 at Polebridge, Montana.
TROPICAL WEATHER: According to long-time records, we supposedly
passed the zenith of the most active part of the hurricane season
around September 10. Of course, that varies greatly from year to year.
There is absolutely nothing on the deck today, not even a tropical
wave. We have had 10 named storms this season. The next three will be
Kyle, Laura, and Marco. Glad those are easy to pronounce.
MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Enjoyed an email from Jean Pettus asking
what kind of dog Molly is. "I know Molly is loving," she said. She
added, "Oh, I wish I had a dog. I have not owned one in a long, long
time." Jean, I wish I could persuade you to find you a nice puppy or
dog. I cannot recommend it enough. Molly is a little 9-pound Shih-Tzu
and all 9 pounds of that little girl just radiates friendliness. If
she were running for president in November, all the other candidates
could just give up. She is just that friendly and diplomatic. I wish
you luck. Life goes on.
