    And you swap your sleep schedule on your days off?

    Amanda works Friday Saturday and Sunday. 630pm to 730am. But on Monday when she gets home she doesn't wake up until Tuesday morning - sometimes she wakes up to eat but thats it.

    Morning dudes.

    From AlabamaWX

    MUCH OF CENTRAL ALABAMA STAYS DRY FOR THE WEEKEND

    We’ll start off your Saturday with a front that has stalled out near the US-80 and I-85 corridors in the southern parts of the area, and it doesn’t look like it will move much at all. Skies will be mostly clear for the northern half of Central Alabama and will be partly cloudy in the south. More moisture will be available in the southern half of the area and that is where the small chance of isolated to scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms will be. Afternoon highs will be in the mid to upper 90s.

    That stalled front will be lifting to the northeast as a warm front and out of the area on Sunday. That will allow for moisture levels to start to creep back up across the area not only for Sunday but for the workweek ahead. Skies will be mostly sunny to partly cloudy with isolated afternoon rain chances looking rather low. Highs will once again reach the mid to upper 90s.

    INCREASING MOISTURE = INCREASING RAIN CHANCES

    The forecast for the work week looks to be one of repeat as there will be a good chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms mainly during the afternoon and evening hours across Central Alabama. Monday will be the drier day of the week as there will only be a chance of isolated to scattered afternoon showers and storms. Highs will be in the mid to upper 90s.

    It will remain hot on Tuesday, but afternoon and evening shower and thunderstorm chances will be elevated as more moisture will be available. Highs will be in the lower to mid-90s.

    Much of the same story on Wednesday as those chances of scattered to numerous mainly afternoon and evening showers and storms remain elevated. Highs will be in the lower to mid-90s.

    Same story, different day for your Thursday… A good chance of afternoon and evening scattered showers and storms. Highs will be in the lower to mid-90s.

    And to end off the workweek, not many changes expected for your Friday. Scattered mainly afternoon and evening showers and storms. Highs in the upper 80s to the lower 90s.

    WHAT’S UP WITH THE TROPICS

    As of the 7:00 pm update on Friday night, we have a tropical wave located several hundred miles west-southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands is currently accompanied by a few showers and thunderstorms. Slow development of this system is possible during the next couple of days while it moves slowly westward. After that time, environmental conditions are expected to become less conducive for development. The National Hurricane Center is only giving it a 10% chance for development over the next five days. The rest of the Atlantic Basin remains surprisingly quiet.

    BIRMINGHAM’S CLIMATE NORMALS FOR SATURDAY

    Sunrise – 6:05 am CDT
    Sunset – 7:40 pm CDT

    Normal High: 91 degrees
    Record High: 104 degrees (1935)

    Normal Low: 71 degrees
    Record Low: 60 degrees (1990)

    Just one year ago, the year that was known for the unbelievable heat during the summer and into the start of fall, the high in Birmingham only reached 88 degrees due to cloud cover. That high was three degrees lower than the normal high for August 8th.

    ON THIS DATE IN WEATHER HISTORY

    1882 – An August snowstorm was reported by a ship on Lake Michigan. A thick cloud reportedly burst on the decks covering them with snow and slush six inches deep. Snow showers were observed at shore points that day.

    1989 – A total of ninety-nine cities in the central and eastern U.S. reported record low temperatures for the date, including Alpena MI with a reading of 40 degrees. Mount Mitchell NC was the cold spot in the nation with a morning low of 35 degrees. Early evening thunderstorms around Las Vegas NV produced wind gusts to 116 mph. The high winds damaged or destroyed about eighty- two aircraft at Henderson Sky Harbor Airport and McCarran International Airport, causing fourteen million dollars damage.

    you know what the nice thing to do is. Rather we watch the video or not give it a thumbs up and let it play in the background of a tab rather listening to it or not.

    I don't think you want to click a video and then close out of it at the beginning, I think YouTube's algorithm picks up on that and sees it as uninteresting or not holding audiences attention. IDK why, but i read about this the other day.

    So back this spring I started a, what I thought was brilliant, collab #collab where two channels with very different content made a video for each other. This way each channel would get in front of an audience they normally would not reach otherwise... I made a playlist and expected videos to slowly roll in 2 at a time to adf to the playlist and have.my channel name dropped all over the place for coming up with it. This collab would be u like most since most collabs have a set theme and this would literally allow any content creator to participate... I did an art video for and art channeland he made lemon tarts... And nothing else happened... I was a Little shocked tbh... But I have the most viewed video on that guys channel and since I didn't give a deadline the collab will always be an option down the road
