...Warm for October...

MAYBE SOME SHOWERS LATE IN WEEK: It does not look like a significant
rain event for the remainder of this week. We do have some hope of
some scattered showers developing by late Thursday, Thursday night and
into Friday. They should be rather widely spaced, so everyone will not
get rain. The computerized models that estimate rain amounts several
days in advance show only puny amounts all the way through Saturday.

Meanwhile, the old thermometer will be rather consistent for the rest
of this week starting tomorrow. We look for mid 80s for a high
temperature through Thursday with some extra cloud cover. The high may
back off a few degrees by Friday, partially due to a few showers.
These high temperatures for the next few days are close to 10 degrees
warmer than average for mid October.

It was comfortable across the state today because clouds hung tough.
This afternoon, because of that cloud cover and an easterly wind,
temperatures were only in the mid 70s over most of North and East
Alabama, but around 80 or better from Tuscaloosa southward to
Montgomery, Evergreen and Mobile.

A large high-pressure center was over Virginia and North Carolina this
afternoon. Counter-clockwise circulation around that high has been
giving us an east wind for several days in a row. That will change a
little bit later. Clouds should be scarce starting later Tuesday and
almost all sunshine on Wednesday.

TROPICAL WEATHER: The tropical season seems to be hanging tough.
Tropical depression #15 formed this morning over the Eastern
Caribbean. It is not expected to bother the Gulf of Mexico and the
projected path takes it over the east edge of Puerto Rico and out into
the open Atlantic. It is projected to reach hurricane strength,
however. Meanwhile, Tropical Depression Nana is way out there and no
problem to anybody. Yet another low-pressure area was not far SW of
Nana. Thunderstorms with it have grown some, but interestingly enough,
the circulation will probably ingested into Nana. That does not happen
too often. Still another larger area was over the SW Caribbean 100
miles ESE of Nicaragua coast. A large area of disturbed area is with
that one. Conditions are favourable for additional development and it
will likely become still another tropical depression. A hurricane
hunter will fly into the area Tuesday if necessary.

OUR WORLD OF WEATHER: A whopper of a snowstorm over parts of the
Mountain West over the weekend, especially in Montana and Wyoming.
Lander, Wyoming received 30 inches of snow at the NWS office and that
is the most ever recorded in that city in the month of October. Some
of the heavier amounts from this big storm included 49 inches at
Limestone and Red Lodge, Montana…coldest in the lower 48 this morning
was 8 above at Flagstaff, Arizona…a snow survey this morning shows
that about 13% of the lower 48 has a snow cover—mostly in the Mountain
West…satellite surveys showed that about 2/3 of Alaska is already snow
covered. The winter will be interesting to watch.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: I do not think Little Miss Molly likes
football. She gets neglected if there is a big game on TV. She does
not even watch Animal Planet. She knows when TV is on she will get
less attention. I have said many times that I am glad no one can hear
the conversation between Little Miss Molly and me. If you did, you
would either think that Miss Molly was human or that I was stark
raving crazy. We carry on a lot of forehead-to-forehead conversations.
Her eyeballs are almost touching mine and her eyes get real big as if
she is understanding every word. Sure would like to know what she
thinks of me—or maybe I don't. life goes on—seemingly never a dull
moment. I like it that way.
