Alabama thread!

I got you, treefiddy each spring, with shipping, and new bushing kit!!

 

I about cried. Love that show

 

Word is that Hurricane Creek will be closed during the winter months. Trying to get dates... will let y'all know when I find out.

 

courage?

 

It was a great camping trip but when I went it was really dry and the trails were super dusty and a little too tame for my preference.

I would say extremely light trail riding. Like stock pre-runner friendly.

 

the cowardly dog show

 

yep

Ridiculous amount of rain for you guys up north Friday and into the weekend. Up to 6 INCHES IS POSSIBLE! Significant severe weather outbreak is expected but they don't know the details. I imagine there will be downed trees even if there aren't that many tornadoes. The ground is so saturated that high winds associated with Thunderstorms will easily uproot trees. Please be weather aware Friday night into Saturday. You know well ahead of time so spread the word and have a plan of action.

From AlabamaWX

SUNNY, COOL DAY AHEAD: An upper trough brought some light rain to the northern half of Alabama during the overnight hours; that rain is now in Georgia, and a new surge of dry air is pushing into the state. Today will be sunny and a bit cooler; the high will be in the mid to upper 50s over North Alabama, with low 60s for the southern counties. Tonight will be clear and cold… the low early tomorrow will be in the 28-34 degree range.

Dry weather continues tomorrow with a good supply of sunshine; the high will be in the low 60s. Then, mid 60s are likely Thursday with a mix of sun and clouds. Clouds thicken Thursday night.

HEAVY RAIN/SEVERE THUNDERSTORM THREAT: We will have the dual threat of heavy rain/flash flooding, and severe thunderstorms across Alabama Friday and Saturday. Rain amounts between 3 and 6 inches are likely over the northern third of Alabama, with totals of around 2 inches likely for the southern part of the state. The ground is saturated, and flooding is a very real possibility.



In terms of the severe weather threat, it begins Friday west of Alabama, through parts of East Texas, East Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana; SPC has a severe weather risk defined for this area on their “Day 4” convective outlook.



Then, on Saturday, the risk shifts into the Deep South, including all of Alabama and Mississippi. SPC has higher severe weather possibilities defined for West and South Alabama, but the entire state will have some risk of severe storms.



The larger, synoptic scale will favors thunderstorms across Alabama Saturday that will be strong to severe; for now it looks like all modes of severe weather will be possible, including hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes. This has potential to be a significant severe weather event for our state, but it is important to note that we still don’t know the smaller, mesoscale features yet and how they will line up. We will have a good look at this once we get within 60 hours, when the CAMs (convection allowing models) will be in range. It is also too early to forecast the specific timing of the higher severe weather threat.

Everyone will need to be weather aware Saturday; be sure you have a way of hearing warnings if they are needed, and have a plan in case you go in a tornado warning polygon.

Sunday will be dry following the storms with a good supply of sunshine. Temperatures will be spring-like; we reach the 70s Friday and Saturday, and even on Sunday highs will be well up in the 60s.

 

I gotta order some more grease able pins only got one set with mine, shouldve ordered when I ordered my springs

 

Yes, we have been looking for somewhere to ride and every where we want to go is either closed or under water.

 

I am so freaking tired of the rain.

 

Thanks for the invite! I’ll be glad to help with any Georgia Traverse info I can. Hoping to go back to North Georgia soon.

 

We road Oakmulgee and Talladega Forest last Saturday. We had to turn around twice because of flooding but sill had a good time.

 

Oakmulgee? Down in my neck of the woods.

 

I'm hoping to do the Eastern half this Summer, should be a little more technical and scenic. And dusty is correct...you probably felt you followed Pigpen all weekend

 

You and me both! Daggum pattern where it comes every 5-6 days or so. Sunday will be nice and I hope we're enjoying it, not cleaning up debris.

 

I have had zero time to do any sort of yard cleanup because every day I do have time, it's freaking raining. driving me nuts!

 

So my company, at the direction of the CEO, just blocked off 2.5 hours every Tuesday for everyone in the whole company's schedule to focus on "W1nning-Tuesday."

What is "W1nning-Tuesday" you ask? It is a time when we are supposed to focus on what winning looks like for us and our team.

I can't wait to tell my boss I missed a deadline because I was thinking about how to win in 2020. I can't believe we pay people to come up with this stuff.

 

did you guys hire Dennis Muilenberg as CEO? Sounds like some BS he'd do.

though his ass is probably off on some yacht in France enjoying not being CEO of Boeing lol
