...A Dreary Day in Alabama...

ALABAMA DISCUSSION: It was not the most pleasant day across Alabama,
with almost no sunshine. The clouds were hanging low, sometimes
obscuring the ridges, and there were patches of drizzle around the
state. Not much rain.

The clouds will hang on tonight. It will be foggy in places with some
intermittent light drizzle and possibly a few showers before daybreak.
It looks like Friday and Friday night will be our best rain day. There
is a decent chance that Central Alabama can get ½ to ¾ of an inch of
rain out of this system. One concern that we will watch out for is
that a big cluster of heavier showers and some thunderstorms will hang
tough near the Gulf Coast. Often that cheats North Alabama from
getting as much rain as normally expected.

There will be a good chance of showers Friday and possibly a
thunderstorm. After that, a pronounced cold front will be entering
West Tennessee and North Mississippi Friday evening. It will sweep
rapidly through Alabama getting all the way down to near Tallahassee
by early Saturday morning. This is a strong high-pressure area behind
the front for so early in the season. We believe that NW winds will be
between 15 and 25 mph Saturday and maybe gusting over 30 on the
ridges. It also looks like clouds will hang tough for part of
Saturday, although the showers should move out early. If the clouds do
not break up until afternoon, there is a good chance that parts of
North Alabama will not warm out of the 40s. We have lowered the high
for the Birmingham area to 49 for Saturday based on that. That may be
a slight stretch, especially if the clouds move out earlier. It is
going to be near freezing when you get up Sunday morning and again
Monday morning, but look for mostly sunshine Sunday and Monday.

FOOTBALL WEATHER: For high school play off games Friday night, a good
chance of a shower during the game at most stadiums. The temperature
should fall into the 50s before the game is over. On Saturday, the
University of Georgia will be at Auburn for an early kick off at 11:30
a.m. and televised by Raycon. It should be partly sunny with about 50
at kick off and peaking near 55 during the game. Brisk, NW winds. Over
on the opposite side of the state, Mississippi State will be in
Tuscaloosa to play Alabama Saturday night with a 6:45 p.m. kick off on
ESPN. You will need extra warm clothing. Temperatures will be in the
mid 40s at kick off lowering to near 40 by the end of the game.

GLOBAL ROAMING: If you do not like this cold weather this early in
the season, consider the island of Guam where the high yesterday was
88 and low this morning 79. In contrast, Fairbanks has gone 28
consecutive days with temperatures averaging below normal and it was
the coldest such period on record. Cold temperatures this morning 18
at Saranac Lake, New York and Berlin, New Hampshire and 90 at Alice,
Texas. Coldest in Alaska was 20 below at Northway. There was 14 inches
of new snow at Girwood, Alaska. 6 to 14 inches of snow expected in the
Grand Teton Mountains of NW Wyoming and 4 to 8 inches in Yellowstone
National Park.
