perspective. Iron Man is for all men, single or married, high school
juniors to mature adults. It is for men, by men on Friday night

...Cold Not Finished...

Temperatures warmed nicely on Sunday as skies cleared quickly behind a
cold front. With lots of sunshine, readings warmed into the middle 50s
to lower 60s. But the cold weather is not through with us yet.

TODAY'S WEATHER: Another shot of cold air will swing our way later
today as winds shift from westerly to northwesterly and northerly.
There could be a few snow flurries today as the colder air arrives.
Moisture will be in short supply, and any snow that falls will be
spotty and very light. Highs will top out in the middle 40s. Tonight
will feature mostly cloudy skies with temperatures in the middle and
upper 20s by morning along with a chilly north wind.

TUESDAY FLURRIES: Another upper level disturbance will pass on
Tuesday. It will be even more moisture starved that today's system,
but since it is stronger, it will manage to squeeze out a few snow
flurries. Again, amounts will be light and no problems are
anticipated. Tuesday will feature blustery, very cold conditions,
with highs hovering in the 30s and a chill north wind.

HARD FREEZE TUESDAY NIGHT: Another strong surge of cold air will
bring another borderline hard freeze to Alabama Tuesday night. By
Wednesday morning, lows will drop into the lower and middle 20s across
Central Alabama. Precautions will need to be taken for the cold
weather.

MODERATION BEGINS WEDNESDAY: Everything is relative. Wednesday's
temperatures will be about 10-15 degrees warmer than Tuesday. But it
will still be chilly, with highs in the upper 40s and mostly sunny
skies. We are back near freezing Wednesday night. Thursday will see
a real warm up and an upper ridge moves over us and surface high
pressure to our south slides over to Florida. This will allow a deep
southerly flow to begin. We will enjoy a nice day on Thursday with a
good supply of sunshine and temperatures warming to near 60 degrees.
That will feel very nice.

NEXT WET WEATHER SYSTEM: An approaching disturbance will weaken as
it moves toward Alabama on Friday. Clouds will be on the increase and
showers will arrive in western sections late in the day. It appears
that showers will move slowly eastward across the state Friday night
into early Saturday. A recent run of the GFS model keeps the frontal
system stalled across Alabama on Saturday into Sunday, keeping wet
weather in the neighborhood for much of the weekend.

ON THIS DATE IN 2003: Organizers of the annual Flake Out Festival at
Wisconsin Dells were missing the most important part of their
anowsculpture competition: the snow. With no snow on the ground and
none forecast, snow making guns had to be brought in from a nearby
resort. Other winter festivals across the Upper Midwest were in the
same boat as an unusually snowless winter presented a big challenge.
The Run on Water race at Bayfield, WI was in danger of being cancelled
as ice conditions were not solid enough on the lake.
