...Nice Looking Sunday...

A nice looking Sunday is in store across Central Alabama as a little
drier air works into the state behind a couple of reinforcing cold
fronts. Skies will be partly cloudy with mild temperatures in the 70s.
Clouds will begin to increase late in the day as we flip back to a wet
pattern.

RAIN TO RETURN: Upper levels winds over Alabama and the Deep South
remain out of the southwest, and this will allow a slug of moisture to
move out of the western Gulf of Mexico. As it does, rain chances will
go back up starting tonight. Expect an area of rain to move across the
area tomorrow morning. You will feel that humidity again, and that
increased moisture will keep showers in the forecast Monday night.
Look for additional areas of rain in the Tuesday and Wednesday
timeframe. By Wednesday night, we could see an additional 2-4 inches
of rain across parts of North Central Alabama. Wow. We will have to
start looking for potential flooding problems again. Dewpoints may be
back in the 70 degree range by midweek, which is really moist.

AND THAT'S NOT ALL: It looks like a very strong trough will start to
develop over the Central U.S. on Wednesday, triggering the development
of a potent low pressure system over northwestern Arkansas by late in
the day. It will slide eastward, accompanied by heavy rains to the
south of the low. Rain and thunderstorms will be likely on Thursday,
with the potential for heavy rain and severe weather. Friday will be
blustery and sharply cooler with temperatures holding steady around 60
during the day and a biting northwest wind. High pressure will build
in for Saturday and Sunday, giving us some fine fall weekend weather
finally. TROPICS: The Tropical Atlantic continues to be extremely
quiet. No real signs of tropical development in the Atlantic over the
next two weeks.

UPCOMING WEATHERBRAINS GUESTS: A little switch in the schedule:
legendary radar expert Les Lemon has been pushed back to January
because of commitments he has out of the country. It's our first
annual rant show this week, followed by Bill Read, Director of the
National Hurricane Center live from the National Weather Association
meeting in Norfolk on October 19th. We will have an AM Weather reunion
on October 26th. Dr. Chuck Doswell on November 2nd. Tim Marshall on
November 9th. Follow WeatherBrains on Twitter @weatherbrains. Email
your weather rants this week to email@weatherbrains.com.

ON THIS DATE IN 1963: Hurricane Flora spent eleven days in October
1963 wreaking havoc along her path through the Caribbean. The storm
brought 170 mph winds and an eleven foot storm surge to Haiti, killing
5,000 people, making it the island nation's most destructive
hurricane. The slow moving storm would also brings 3 days of
torrential rainfalls of 15-20 inches to Cuba. The floods and attendant
mudslides kill 1300 people in that island nation. Castro would refuse
the United States offers of help.
