...Another Widespread Freeze...

WARMING TREND STARTS TOMORROW: But not before we have another
widespread and substantial freeze tonight. We expect low temperatures
to bottom out close to 20 across Central Alabama. That means some of
the North Alabama valleys will be in the teens. In fact, some outlying
areas around the Tuscaloosa, Birmingham and Anniston area will also be
in the upper teens.

The cold front that moved across Alabama in a hurry yesterday moved
off shore into the Gulf. By daybreak tomorrow, a high-pressure area
will be over Alabama. The air is extremely dry, so the wind should be
near calm around daybreak at the coldest time of the day. While the 47
that we have forecast for tomorrow afternoon is not exactly short-
sleeve shirt weather, it does represent the beginning of a warming
trend that will peak on Friday with highs near 60 or a little above.
Meanwhile another cold front will be headed our way and it should
cross the state late Friday night and Saturday morning. We introduce a
chance of showers later Friday and Friday night. Those should be
ending Saturday morning as it turns cooler again.

Numerous North and Central Alabama communities got very excited
yesterday afternoon when some snow flurries occurred. They did not
last long, but by this morning it was well below freezing in many
areas. Some representative lows:

19 Walnut Grove, Muscadine, Scrougout
20 Hamilton
21 Cullman
22 Oxford, Jasper
23 Birmingham, Anniston, Jemison
25 Tuscaloosa, Coker, Livingston, Sylacauga

GLOBAL ROAMING: I bet you have never heard of the Faroe Islands. They
are in the North Sea between Iceland and Norway with a population of
47,000 people. Even though the Islands are very small, there is one
mountain that reaches 2,900 feet. We could almost guarantee that they
have some very interesting weather from major North Atlantic storms.
Even some dying tropical storms can affect that area when they pick up
speed and go into oblivion over the North Atlantic. In the Great Smoky
Mountain National Park, Mt. LeConte had 5 inches of snow this morning
with a low of 3 below zero. Gatlinburg had 19 degrees with 4 inches of
snow. Cities like Raleigh also had a snow cover. USA cold spots this
morning: Grayling, Michigan with 24 below and Hooper Bay, Alaska with
35 below.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: This place seems so empty today because
Little Miss Molly is spending the day at the PBS (Puppy Beauty Shop)
in Argo. She not only is getting a trim, but getting caught up on her
shots. She will smell so good when we pick her up and she will be so
glad to get home. Because of the commotion, she does not get to nap at
the PBS, so she will spend a lot of time in the next 24 hours taking
long naps. Although that will give me a break, I will still wake her
up and cuddle and love her occasionally. Life goes on.
