...More Comfortable Temperatures...

THE ALABAMA STORY: It is a story of some uncertainty, at least in the
near term. Showers have been persistent over parts of Mississippi
today and a few light ones spread into West Alabama. This was due to
and upper-level disturbance and we are not sure how far eastward it
will affect the weather. There were some moderate showers over East
Mississippi, but most of the West Alabama showers have been rather
light.

So, we will go with a chance of some showers over West Alabama this
evening—most of them west of the Birmingham area. We also foresee a
small risk of showers on Sunday, otherwise most of the rest of the
weather through next Tuesday should be dry.
Temperatures are just outright pleasant. Not much that we could
improve on with those. Night lows will be mainly between 58 and 63 and
daytime highs 80 to 83. We cannot beat that.

FOOTBALL WEATHER: Some big games on Saturday, but first we will
discuss football weather tonight. There will be a small risk of a
shower over the west part of the state, otherwise, dry with pleasant
temperatures. At most stadiums the temperature should be in the mid
70s for the 7:30 kick off and dropping into the 60s during the second
half. Alabama is in Fayetteville to play Arkansas Saturday with an
11:30 kick off. An isolated shower or thunderstorm is possible, which
means a very small chance, and the high temperature during the game
should be near 78. Alabama State plays UAB in Birmingham at 3:00 p.m.
It should be near 78 at kick off and about 70 at the final whistle
with dry conditions. Jacksonville State will be in Chattanooga for a
6:00 p.m. kick off. Dry, pleasant weather with 75 at kick off and
about 64 at the final whistle. Finally, at 6:45 p.m., the LSU Tigers
will be in Auburn for a key game. About 75 at kick off and 65 in the
fourth quarter with only a small risk of a shower.

TROPICAL WEATHER: We need to watch the Tropics again. A tropical
wave, part of a broad low-pressure area, was producing widespread
showers over the Lesser Antilles and adjacent Caribbean and Atlantic
waters. Sorry to say that it has become a little better organized
today. Upper-level winds are expected to become more friendly for it
to show additional development over the next couple of days. If it
finally develops into a tropical storm, it will be named Kyle. It will
continue moving westward into the Eastern Caribbean.

WRAPUP: Low temperatures this morning included 24 at Saranac Lake,
New York—the coldest in the USA—and high yesterday 108 in Death
Valley. Both of those locations frequently have the temperature
extremes. Coldest in Alaska was 25 at Chandalar Lake.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: My little 9-pound pal, Little Miss
Molly, is growing smarter by the day. She has learned strategic
deployment of her toys for maximum efficiency to booby-trap me when I
walk to the kitchen to get coffee. When I got up this morning, I
counted three of her favorite balls in the master bedroom, one in the
office, two in the foyer, one in the kitchen and four in the large
living area. When she hears me coming, she can grab one and come
charging at me to deposit the ball at my feet. It is so hard to turn
her down. I got a kick out of a "Dear God Letter from Dogs" that Esker
Harrison forwarded. One of my favorites, "When we all get to heaven,
can we sit on your couch or will it be the same old story?" I say
again that dogs are a lot smarter than we think. I know that Molly is
a lot smarter than I am. I do not mind. Life goes on.
