...Chamber of Commerce Weather...

VERY FRIENDLY WEATHER: Not always the best weather, especially now
when almost all of the state is back into an old habit of needing
rain. Our ABC 33/40 Skywatcher, Vic Bell in NE Etowah County, reports
only ¼ inch of rain in the last 17 days. Similar reports from other NE
Alabama locations. In Huntsville, the deficiency for the year through
today is 12.56 inches.

Little or no chance of rain all the way through the weekend. We are
watching a situation off the South Atlantic coast that could spread
some rain westward into Georgia and the Carolinas, but at least
through Sunday we think all of that will remain east of Alabama. We
could see some showers, especially over the eastern sections later
Monday and Tuesday.

Meanwhile, we will get a fresh supply of cooler and drier air from the
north that will hold our high temperatures to the lower 80s Thursday
and Friday with cool nights in the lower 50s. It is almost certain
that we will hear of some low temperatures in the upper 40s the next
two mornings. Lows this morning were in the 50s over much of North
Alabama and even in parts of South Alabama.

FOOTBALL WEATHER: Starting with tomorrow's editions, we will have a
complete football weather round up, but a preliminary indication is
that the Auburn/Tennessee game will be dry Saturday afternoon in
Auburn. There could be some showers around the area of Athens for the
Alabama/Georgia game Saturday night.

NERVOUS ATLANTIC COAST: In a statement late this morning, the
National Hurricane Center said the low-pressure area about 250 miles
SE of Wilmington, North Carolina had changed little in the last
several hours. They still believe it has the potential to become a
tropical or sub-tropical cyclone later today or tonight as it drifts
westward. The low is partly responsible for winds up to hurricane
force well to the north and NW of the center. It will bring strong
winds, coastal flooding, high surf and dangerous rip currents to part
of the U. S. east coast during the next couple of days. Meanwhile, the
broad low-pressure area we have been watching for a long time is now
centered north of the Dominican Republic and Haiti. It is still
disorganized and no noticeable surface circulation. Winds upstairs are
only so-so favourable for development as it moves north the next
couple of days. Still a lingering threat for heavy rain and
life-threatening flash floods and mudslides over Haiti, the Dominican
Republic and Puerto Rico through tonight.

GLOBAL ROAMING: We always think of Hawaii as being warm, but they do
have some high elevations and occasionally get snow. Early this
morning, it was 34 degrees on Mauna Kea with a strong SW wind and a
wind chill of 19…it was a chilly 36 atop Mt. LeConte in the Great
Smoky Mountains this morning…the USA low was 24 at Stanley, Idaho and
the hottest yesterday was 105 in Death Valley.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: Since writing this little paragraph for
the last five years, I am amazed at the huge number of people that
love dogs. A nice e-mail from Bo Lollar at Berry in Fayette County. He
said he has had many dogs in his 67 years. All but a couple of them
have been cast-offs that he rescued. They either show up at his farm
or he picks them up off the road somewhere. All of that kind of dogs
have been the greatest of pets. He still has two dogs and two cats—all
adopted and he said someone could offer him a million bucks for them
and he would decline. They are so loyal to him and he is loyal to
them. He thinks no one should own just a single dog. He believes that
every dog needs a playmate. He has had several dogs go off and never
come back and some have come back with hunter's bullets in them. Bo
also highly recommends neutering and spaying. Good to hear from him.
Life goes on.
