...The Weather Settles...

A QUIET WEATHER WEEK: We had enough severe weather Sunday to last us
a long time and I believe that every single person in the state is
happy to see some settled weather this week.

This has been a very active spring, but we see little or no threat of
storms all the way into the weekend. We do have a second cold front
coming down the pike that will push through Alabama during the day
Tuesday. The chance of it producing a shower is so small that we left
it out of the forecast. The front that moved through last night has
pushed well down into the Gulf of Mexico and over to the Atlantic
Seaboard. This will give us three fairly chilly nights in a row with
lows in the low to mid 40s, but daytimes will be comfortable. Toward
the end of the week, it will really feel springlike as temperatures
climb into the lower 80s.

There were widespread reports of damage Sunday and Sunday night. Some
of the worst damage seemed to be in NE Alabama, also in Blount and
Shelby Counties. The National Weather Service has teams in the field
today inspecting damage, especially where there were apparent
tornadoes. They will be issuing a series of reports over the next few
days with their findings.

AN ACTIVE YEAR: It may or may not surprise you that so far in 2009
Alabama has had the second largest number reports of severe weather
with 429. That is second only to Texas. Please remember that these are
preliminary reports and most of the time that number is reduced when
it is found that there was more than one report of the same storm.

RAIN AMOUNTS: Most areas had decent rain amounts yesterday. A few
examples:

3.12 Pelham
2.31 Helena
2.41 Madison
1.64 Pell City
1.84 Huntsville
1.29 Anniston

ROAMING: A hot 102 was the USA hottest at Anaheim, California Sunday.
Coldest this morning in the lower 48 was 18 at Houlton, Maine. In
Alaska, it was 15 below zero at Nuiqsut. Our daily check on the
Whittier snow depth shows 85 inches still on the ground. Nome has 56
inches. That was quite a snowstorm in the Colorado Rockies over the
last several days. Some places in the mountains west of Denver
received several feet. There was a storm total of 52 inches at
Pinecliffe, Colorado.

MY TINY CORNER OF THE WORLD: One of these days Little Miss Molly is
going to disown me. An usually large number of days this year, when I
get so busy weatherwise, that I have little time for her. For the love
she gives us, she does not expect that much in return. I sure hate it
when I have to go 2 or 3 days with little attention to her. She sure
lets me know it in a pleasant way by coming in my office, sitting and
staring at me like she is almost frowning. At least I have been giving
her some AAA belly rubs the last few days. She loves those very much.
Life goes on.
