...Alabama Weather Relatively Quiet...

ANOTHER DAY OF SUNSHINE: For the second day in a row, it should be
almost all sunshine across Alabama. Thursday was a sparkling clear day
and a huge contrast to the stormy weather of Wednesday. The National
Weather Service in Birmingham did some storm surveys yesterday, mostly
in East Alabama. They ran out of time and may finish the job today.
There were no fatalities in Alabama, but according to news reports,
Georgia had 1 tornado fatality. This means that so far in 2009 nine
people have been killed by tornadoes in the USA. Eight of those died
in a single tornado in Carter County, Oklahoma on February 10. Last
year, there were 7 fatalities in January and 59 in February with a
total of 125 for the entire year. We do not know what kind of tornado
season we will have in Alabama this year. The prime season is March,
April and May, which means that it could start up as early as a week
from now.

STORM ALERT 2009: The next installment is next Thursday night,
February 26, at the Cullman County Civic Center. As usual, the doors
open at 5:00, the program kicks off at 7:00 and you are out of there
by 8:15. There are some quizzes and some prizes and the weather team
will present an excellent program on tornadoes and what you should do.

GLOBAL ROAMING: Extreme temperatures across the lower 48 states
yesterday included 28 below zero at International Falls, Minnesota.
The final high was not available at publication time, but West Palm
Beach had a high of 84 and Miami 85. In the Rio Grande Valley of South
Texas where some stations reported low 90s a few days ago, the warmest
yesterday was 84 at McAllen. The strong to severe thunderstorms that
moved across Alabama Wednesday seemed to grow even stronger when they
crossed over into Georgia. There were several reports of extremely
large hail. Even in Alabama we had a report of some softball-size
hail near Anniston.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: For the first time in two days, Molly
finally had an opportunity to play ball. Usually when we neglect her,
she will create a ballgame on her own. She has about 7 or 8 balls to
play with and she will grab them, run through the living area, and
sling them everywhere hoping someone will take the cue. That is her
favorite pastime. You would think that a little creature like that
would outgrow her interest, but she has been an avid baseball player
for most of her six years here on earth. Life goes on.
