...Nice Fall Afternoon...

A beautiful October afternoon is in progress across Central Alabama as
high pressure ridges into the Deep South from West Virginia through
Central Tennessee. A cool easterly flow around the high pressure ridge
is pulling cooler, dry air into the state from Georgia. Temperatures
are in the 60s, wit middle 60s from I-65 west, and lower 60s in the
east. Dewpoints are low, around 40F, indicating the dryness of the
air. Skies are crystal clear and deep blue, about as pretty as you
will ever see in Alabama. Some high cirrus clouds were working their
way to the north over South Alabama and will affect Central sections
of the state this evening and overnight. Lows will be in the 40s.

A NEW WORK WEEK: Skies will be partly cloudy on Monday, with highs
in the lower 70s. Skies will begin to become cloudy Monday evening,
with showers arriving overnight. Tuesday looks like a wetter day in
recent model runs. Most areas can expect over an inch of rain from
system number one. We won't see much of an airmass change behind this
first system, and Wednesday looks like it will remain a little humid,
but with partly cloudy skies and warm conditions. Look for highs in
the middle 70s.

END OF WEEK STORM SYSTEM: By Thursday, a powerful upper trough will
be swinging out of the southern Plains. As it does, we will see
moisture surge back into Alabama. There could be a few showers and
storms Thursday afternoon. The timing on this system is uncertain,
with the latest model runs putting the best chance of rain on
Saturday. But we are going to hope that the rain is mostly over by
Friday night for high school football. This would also be good for
the racing events at Talladega Saturday and Sunday.

NEXT WEEKEND: We are going to hope for improving weather on Saturday,
but that is not really clear at this time. We will call for
decreasing rain chances based on the idea that the main rain should be
on Friday. This should mean decent conditions for the Magic City
Classic on Saturday, trick or treating on Saturday night and the
Talladega Race on Sunday.

WEATHERBRAINS: Monday night's show will feature a reunion of
meteorologists from the vintage PBS show A.M. Weather. Hear Joan von
Ahn, Carl Weiss, and NWA President Elect Steve Zubrick. Go to www.WeatherBrains.com

ON THIS DATE IN 2002: Pacific Hurricane Kenna made landfall on the
west coast of Mexico near the fishing village of San Blas, between
Puerto Vallarta and Mazatlan around midday. Kenna weakened slightly
after reaching peak intensity of 165 mph as a Category 5 storm.
Packing winds of 140 mph at landfall, Kenna dealt a glancing blow to
the resort area of Puerto Vallarta. Huge waves pounded the shore,
damaged buildings and homes and brought down trees and power lines.
One person was killed and 54 injured. Kenna was the third strongest
hurricane to strike the Mexican coast since 1949.
