Alabama thread!

Good thing I don't have a job like that and no knowledge of welding

 

Lol.

 

Mornin'. @JEtaco03 it will probably be a wet weekend but hopefully the rain will move out by Monday. At this point God is the only one that knows exactly haha.

From AlabamaWX

WARM JUNE WEATHER: We are forecasting a high in the upper 80s for most Alabama communities today. The sky will be partly sunny, and the best chance of scattered showers this afternoon will be found over the southern third of the state. The average high for Birmingham on June 2 is 85.

Moisture levels will rise through the rest of the week, and we will bring in the chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms on a daily basis. Most of them, but not necessarily all, will come from about 1:00 until 9:00 p.m.. and odds of any one spot getting wet will be in the 30-40 percent range. Otherwise, look for a mix of sun and clouds each day with highs in the mid to upper 80s.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Not much change; typical early June weather should continue with warm, humid conditions and scattered showers and storms. There could be an increase in the number of showers Sunday, depending on the track of the tropical system in the Gulf of Mexico. The sun will be out at times and highs will be in the 80s.

NEXT WEEK: Again, our weather will be dependent on the tropical situation; if the system moves into Louisiana, or Southeast Texas (as it appears now), deeper tropical moisture will be pulled up into our state early in the week which could set the stage for enhanced rain chances. Otherwise, the week will be warm and muggy with a mix of sun and clouds daily along with the continued threat of scattered showers and thunderstorms. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.



TROPICAL DEPRESSION THREE: The third tropical depression of the Atlantic season developed late yesterday over the Bay of Campeche in the far Southwest Gulf of Mexico. It is expected to become Tropical Storm Cristobal today, and it will move very little over the next 48 hours. The system will then be pulled northward this weekend, and NHC forecasts the center to be over the southern Gulf of Mexico by Saturday night.



From there, higher landfall probabilities remain centered over the upper Texas and western Louisiana coast Sunday night or Monday, possibly as a hurricane. Of course, at this point, there is no skill in forecasting a specific landfall point or the intensity of the system. Typically the biggest threat from early season systems like this involves heavy rain and flooding.



THE ALABAMA/NORTHWEST FLORIDA GULF COAST: While the direct impact from Cristobal is likely to be west of Alabama and the Florida Panhandle, the Central Gulf Coast will remain on the wet, east side of the system with an onshore flow. Deep tropical moisture will be pulled into the region, leading to higher rain chances by the end of this week and the weekend ahead. The rain could be heavy at times. For now, we are not expecting any dangerous weather in terms of wind, but rip currents will be likely.

Many are asking if they need to cancel their beach trip this weekend. If it was me, I could not cancel. The rain won’t be continuous, and the sun should break out at times. But, different people go to the beach for different reasons of course. I should also mention the track of the tropical system is not “carved in stone” at this point”, and I would certainly pay attention to updates.

ON THIS DATE IN 1998: A tornado touched down at Frostburg, Maryland on June 2, 1998, at 9:45 PM – this was part of a killer outbreak of tornadoes that moved southeast from Pennsylvania. The storm entered Garrett County, Maryland striking the town of Finzel. It then moved up and over Big Savage Mountain in Allegany County and ripped through the northern portion of Frostburg. It reached its peak strength as it crossed the ridge. Winds were estimated between 210 and 250 mph (F4 on the Fujita Tornado Damage Scale). This was the first tornado to “officially” be rated an “F4” in the State of Maryland.

 

Ok folks, help me out lol.

How do you nicely tell someone the way they eat grosses you out?

The guy in the cube beside me, that I talk to all the time, great guy, get along well, until he eats....we normally ate lunch in the loud cafeteria but they closed it down unless you just sit alone due to covid. So now we eat at our cubes.

After every single bite he takes he smacks his lips, almost like eating with his mouth open but different....it's just disgusting, like a 4 year old smacking on some gum or something. I can't even replicate it, I find eating food with my mouth closed is much easier than with my mouth open...I cannot handle this...

 

Sorry bud, take it from me. There is no way to do this nicly. I hate people that smack their lips or chew with their mouth open. Told a freind in school once as nicely as possible that i didnt like it and he never talked to me again.

 

I know it dude...I guess it was kind of rhetorical because I knew the answer, that there is no answer lol

 

put on noise cancelling headphones and face your computer while he eats. We eat at our cubes all the time and this is the only way I've found to get around others eating habits.

 

I would, but it's one of those we've always eaten together kind of situations. so if I all of a sudden was just super "ignoring" and not participating in conversation it would be pretty rude. basically just sucks the cafeteria was loud enough none of us could hear him smacking his food lol

 

Hey, I found out this intolerance really isn’t my fault. Turns out there’s a genetic marker for the inability to tolerate loud crunching and smacking. So says the Ancestry DNA test I took.

So, I figure it’sa disability and I’m going to file a claim with social security.

my daughter has it too..... she’ll never have to work!

 

Or, just tell your boss about it..... they’ll have to make an accommodation!!

 

So I made a Renaissance Pet Portrait of our Schnauzer last night. I laughed the entire time making it and maybe you'll chuckle viewing it. Next up will be our German Shepherd.

Sir Murphy F. Vom Schnauzer, Supreme Commander, The Legion of Bark.

 

I love it!

are you taking requests and doing other folks pets?

 

Possibly in the future. I looked at some of the ones you can buy and to me it looks like they skipped a bunch of blending steps that would have made the pups heads match the oil painting better.

 

I have a crisp George Washington for you if you decide to.

 

You coming to Talladega this Saturday?

 

For??

 

Riding 600-1 / 2.

Damn bicyclists.

No camping for me till fall, I ain't cut out for this hot humid crap.

 

Haha idk what it is man but I freaking love mountain biking. I don’t think I’ve ever had as much fun doing anything else, and I freaking suck at it!!
