Alabama thread!

say less

 

thank you for thinking of me. Unfortunately I can’t use it. I have have a rack on my truck, and I like the openness of being able to get chemicals off my truck easily.

 

Anytime. It definitely won't be for everyone. It's a strange bird

 

it would make a good camper. Pull out kitchen and lots of head room. You could even put an over head cabinet in. If I had a truck bed, I could use it for a cool camper with awnings off the side and back. It would be easier to set up than my current camping trailer.

 

I was gonna use it on my camp trailer. I just decided to go with a Brute Force bed cage and RTT. If I end up keeping it, I can always set it up that way and use it if wanted.

 

It was either learn to cook or let someone move in to do it and it is a lot cheaper to learn to do it myself.

 

Building sliders for Tacomas is far easier than doing them for land cruisers.

Mornin' Bama! Just ordered two of these sweet wharncliffe blades for my boys. They are really cheap with their introductory pricing, they have uncoated too if that floats your boat.

 

Their Ice cream cones and banana splits are delicious as well. But yea the Chili dogs are a home run.

 

From AlabamaWX

RADAR CHECK: Rain covers much of North and West Alabama this morning, with a few embedded thunderstorms. Occasional rain will continue today… the storms involved are noisy and are producing heavy rain, but should remain below severe limits. A cold front is draped over the northwest part of Alabama early this morning, and there is a big thermal contrast. North of the front Muscle Shoals reports 44 degrees, while Birmingham is at 61 just before daybreak. The front will creep slowly southward today… North Alabama will hold in the 40s, while the southern part of the state will stay in the 60s.

TO THE NORTH: An ice storm warning remains in effect for parts of Arkansas, West Tennessee, and much of Kentucky as freezing rain continues to fall this morning. Travel is discouraged; there are scattered power outages reported already.

TOMORROW AND THE WEEKEND: A decent part of the day tomorrow will be dry… the sky will be mostly cloudy with temperatures in the 40s over the northern half of the state. The next wave brings rain, mostly light, to the state tomorrow night into Saturday morning. A touch of freezing rain can’t be totally ruled out early Saturday across Northwest Alabama, but for now it looks like temperatures there will be generally in the mid 30s as the rain falls. The rain will end from west to east Saturday afternoon… otherwise the day will be cloudy and cold with temperatures in the 30s over Tennessee Valley, 40s for North/Central Alabama, and 50s for the southern half of the state.

Sunday looks generally dry… the sky will be mostly cloudy with a high in the 40s for most places.

NEXT WEEK: Yet another wave in this complex pattern will bring lots of precipitation to Alabama late Monday and Monday night. The reliable European global model suggests thermal values will favor just rain for most of Alabama, with some potential for freezing rain over the northwest corner of the state. It is simply too early for a specific forecast at this point… once we get today’s rain out of here we can focus on this event. As discussed here often in the past week, shallow layers of cold air near the surface can be problematic for global models, certainly for an event five days out.

The precipitation will end early in the day Tuesday… colder air will drop southward and the northern half of the state will likely hold in the 30s all day. Wednesday will be dry before rain returns Thursday. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.



ON THIS DATE IN 1983: Called the “Megalopolitan blockbuster snowstorm,” this major snowstorm impacted the Mid-Atlantic and southern New England. Snowfall up to 25 inches fell at Allentown, Pennsylvania. Snowfall amount of 35 inches occurred in parts of the Blue Ridge Mountains of West Virginia at Glen Cary. Windsor Locks, Connecticut recorded a record 19 inches in 12 hours. A ship sunk off the Virginia/Maryland coast killing 33
