Alabama thread!

Sorry to hear your wife is having problems and I really hate that people can't be with their family when they are in the hospital. I will say a prayer for your wife and you, hope all gets better really quick for you and your wife.

A warming trend begins this afternoon, with sunshine in full supply we expect a high in the mid 60s. Dry weather continues through Friday with sunny days and fair nights; highs tomorrow and Thursday will be in the low 70s, followed by mid 70s Friday.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Moisture levels will rise a bit, but the weather will stay dry. Look for a partly to mostly sunny sky Saturday and Sunday with highs in the mid 70s.

NEXT WEEK: Still seeing evidence some risk of rain could return by mid-week; highs will remain mild with mostly 70s. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.



TROPICS: Hurricane Eta is basically on the coast of Nicaragua this morning with sustained winds still at 150 mph. Catastrophic wind damage is expected where Eta’s eyewall is moving onshore. Rainfall accosted with Eta will lead to catastrophic, life-threatening flash flooding and river flooding, along with landslides in areas of higher terrain of Central America.



The NHC forecast track shows Eta curving back into the western Caribbean this weekend with reorganization and intensification. From there, some long range models suggest the system could enter the Southeast Gulf of Mexico, but there is no way to resolve the specific track and intensity beyond seven days. But, it is clearly something to watch.



ON THIS DATE IN 1966: An early season snowfall, which started on the 2nd, whitened the ground from Alabama to Michigan. Mobile had their earliest snowflakes on record; to the north Huntsville picked up 4 inches of snow. Just three days later, temperatures rebounded back into the 60s, and Alabama spent a work week in the 70s following the snow.

 

Installing a 12v outlet in the rear of the cab. Should i go 12 gauge or 14 gauge wire? Fridge specs are rated at 45w 3amps.

A bit personal, isn't it? hahahaha

 

Do they not offer early voting in AL?

They do, the polls opened at 7am this morning and line was a mile long by then. Needless to say, she was late to work this morning.
