Alabama thread!

My wifey will be six months preggers and we will have a 1.5 year old. We gettin a hotel

 

Damn y’all popping another one out lol

 

yeah it was a surprise for sure. We were hoping for a little bit of time between the two, but fertile myrtle over here skipped her birth control for three days and here we are haha

 

You need to look at my Viair. 2.5 gal tank in fender well, compressor behind tail light. Air fitting and hose in driver side bed cubbyhole.

 

We doing 15 to little school bus. There is not another option.

I'm down.

I'm good with that


We're friggin' night wheeling boys! I'll get there Fri around mid afternoon maybe thurs night and start wheeling

 

I wanna grab two more flood lights to point at the sides. Should have full coverage then haha

 

You need rock lights those lights will blind people trying to spot you at night.

 

Yeah they’re definitely not for group rides, they’re way too bright haha I’ve got some rock lights I’ve never installed. They have adapters for tube so it’ll be an easy fit.

 

Threat for severe tomorrow seems to be straight line winds. Few tornadoes possible but the instability values aren't that high. Southwest Alabama (Mobile) is the more likely area for Tornadoes but the entire state of Alabama will be under the gun for possible wind damage. That being said the severe storms tomorrow will pack a punch. Treat severe thunderstorm warnings as a tornado warning. It could get dicey.

 

Good Morning

From AlabamaWX

VERY ACTIVE WEATHER AHEAD: Alabamians will need to be very “weather aware” over the next 24 hours as a dynamic storm system approaches the state. While most of the day today will be dry, strong winds will develop this afternoon, and a line of severe storms will sweep through tonight. While thermodynamics (instability) aren’t especially impressive for late March, the dynamics are very strong, and this could be a high impact event for the Deep South.

SPC has defined a “moderate risk” (level 4/5) of severe thunderstorms for areas west of a line from Muscle Shoals to Birmingham to Montgomery to Enterprise… the rest of the state (East Alabama) is in an “enhanced risk” (level 3/5).



TIMING: A line of severe storms will push into the northwest corner of the state around 6:00 this evening, then moving quickly eastward. The line should be around I-59 (Tuscaloosa/Birmingham/Gadsden) by 10:00 p.m… and then into East Alabama after midnight.

THREATS: The main concern tonight will come from damaging straight line winds. Stronger storms in the line will be capable of producing wind gusts in the 60-80 mph range, and this could bring down many trees. Also, a few tornadoes are possible… a strong tornado (EF-2 or higher) can’t be ruled out. The higher tornado probabilities are over the southern half of the state. Some hail is possible as well.

GRADIENT WINDS: Ahead of the storms, a tight pressure gradient will bring strong winds to the state this afternoon. Winds could gust to 40/50 mph in spots, and this could also bring some tree and power line damage. A high wind warning has been issued for Lauderdale, Colbert, Franklin, Lawrence, Marion, Lamar, Fayette, and Pickens counties, where gusts could reach 60 mph this afternoon and early tonight before the storms arrive.



RAIN: Rain amounts will be in the 1-2 inch range with the storms tonight. Some flooding issues are possible, but the line of storms will be moving at a pretty rapid clip which should prevent major, widespread flooding.

IMPORTANT NOTES: It will be important to pay attention to severe thunderstorm warnings tonight, since much of the damage will be caused by straight line winds. If you live in a mobile home, treat a severe thunderstorm warning like a tornado warning. Take some time this morning and secure loose objects on your property that might fly away in high winds. Prepare for power outages; this could be a fairly widespread wind event tonight and some could be without power for hours, if not longer.

Have two reliable ways of learning severe weather warnings (never a siren!)… NOAA Weather Radio and your phone. Be sure emergency alerts are enabled, and install the free ABC 33/40 Weather app. In your safe place have helmets for everyone. If you live in a mobile home, know the nearest shelter and how to get there quickly.

These kind of events are not unusual for Alabama in March and April. Don’t be anxious or scared, simply be ready and we will get through the night fine together.

REST OF THE WEEK AND THE WEEKEND: Look for a clearing sky Thursday with a high between 67 and 70 degrees. Then, we will be rain-free Friday through Sunday with a high in the mid 60s Friday, and close to 70 over the weekend. The possible exception is the immediate Gulf Coast, where a few showers are possible Saturday.

NEXT WEEK: The weather stays dry Monday, but the next weather system will bring rain and storms back to the state Tuesday, and possibly into Wednesday. There will be a decent amount of instability available with this feature, and strong to severe storms could very well be possible, but it is too early to be specific. Dry air returns over the latter half of the week… See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.



ON THIS DATE IN 1805: New York’s City’s Battery Park was strewn with 24-inch snow rollers, from a ferocious storm between the March 26th and March 28th. Snow rollers are natural snowballs that are formed when winds blow over a snow-covered surface.
