...Wet Saturday...

SHOWERS AND STORMS: Drier air is on the way, but first, we will deal
with a rain and storms across Alabama today. An approaching cold
front impinging on our warm and moist airmass will produce showers and
storms today. Look for a line of storms to push through the state at
some point today. Rainfall could be heavy, presenting the threat of
local flash flooding in some areas. Some of the storms could be
strong as well, with wind damage being the primary threat.

FOOTBALL FORECAST: Alabama will host Arkansas at 2:30 p.m. at Bryant-
Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa. A few showers and storms are likely
during the game with a kickoff temperature near 80 degrees. Fans
should note that some of the large grassy parking areas will be
unavailable because of all the recent heavy rains. Take this into
consideration if you are planning to head to the game. This evening
Auburn will host Ball State at Jordan-Hare Stadium at 6:00 p.m. Rain
is likely at times during the game with a kickoff temperature in the
mid to upper 70s. And, UAB is at Texas A&M tonight for a 6:00 p.m.
kickoff; the weather at College Station will be mostly cloudy with
only a tiny risk of a shower during the game. The temperature should
be in the low 80s at kickoff.

DRIER WEATHER AHEAD: Sunday will feature clearing skies across North
Central Alabama. It will still be warm, with highs in the 80s and a
fresh westerly wind. Humidities will not drop very much until Monday,
when the main cold front will arrive. This will finally lead to some
fall-like conditions by Tuesday that will remain in place through
Thursday. By Friday, another approaching front will bring back a
chance of showers and storms that will be with us through Saturday.

TROPICS: Tropical depression number 8 formed in the eastern Atlantic
Friday afternoon. By the time you read this, it may have become a
tropical storm. If so, you will be reading about Grace. The system
will move over cooler water over the next couple of days and it will
begin to encounter some serious shear. The system will likely be torn
to shreds by Monday. Needless to say, TD8/Grace will probably be
short lived.

WEATHERBRAINS: WeatherBrains is the podcast that's all about
weather. This week the panel will talk with tornado and lightning
researcher Tim Samaras. Also, dog trainer Yolanta Benal will make a
quick appearance to help us understand how to make our dogs more
comfortable when storms are nearby. Listen at www.WeatherBrains.com

ON THIS DATE IN 1950: A Blue Moon occurs when a full moon occurs
twice in the same calendar month. It doesn't look any different from
any other full moon, it is just called a Blue Moon. But on this date,
major forest fires in Alberta and British Columbia, Canada spread a
large smoke pall over Canada, the Eastern United States and Western
Europe, causing the moon to actually appear blue. The pall was so
thick that the sun was visible to the naked eye without discomfort
through a lavender colored sky. Follow my weather history tweets on

Our Hope In Difficult Times

We all struggle. A family in turmoil, job loss, health issues, a mess we
helped create. We live in difficult times.

Facing tough times is different with Jesus Christ than without Him.
Does that sound too "churchy?" Too easy? Don't be dismayed or misled.

Our Hope In Difficult Times is the current sermon series at Hunter
Street Baptist Church. There is hope. You don't have to struggle alone.

Join us this Sunday at Hunter Street, 2600 John Hawkins Parkway in
Hoover. Visit http://www.hunterstreet.org or call 205.985.7295.
