    We ate there a few years back and I thought the same. The food isn't worth the drive over there.

    I thought you meant you would have it ready when you said, "hope something’s under the truck in three weeks"

    Yeah I will have an empty seat, you can drive it if you want to..

    From AlabamaWX

    CHANGES AHEAD: Clouds will continue to increase across Alabama over the next few hours, and widespread rain is likely late tonight into tomorrow morning.

    [​IMG]

    It still looks like most of the rain will come from about midnight tonight through 12 noon tomorrow, although a few showers could linger over East Alabama tomorrow afternoon. While a few storms are possible near the Gulf Coast, for most of the state it will be a cold rain in a stable airmass with temperatures in the 45-55 degree range. Rain amounts of 1/2 to 1 inch are expected.

    WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY: The weather will be cold and dry over the latter half of the week with highs in the 40s and 50s, and lows mostly in the 20s by Thursday and Friday morning. These values are well below average for mid-November in Alabama.

    THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Dry weather continues with sunny days and clear nights. Highs mostly in the 50s, lows generally between 25 and 32 degrees.

    NEXT WEEK: Dry weather continues through at least the first half of the week; models hint some rain could return late in the week, but they are not in good agreement. Temperatures remain below average, and we see no chance of any severe storms in Alabama for the next 7-10 days. See the daily Weather Briefing video for maps, graphics, and more details.

    [​IMG]

    TROPICS: All is quiet across the Atlantic basin, and tropical storm formation is not expected through the week. The hurricane season ends at the end of this month.

    THIS MORNING: Here are some of the colder low temperatures across Alabama this morning.

    ON THIS DATE IN 1969: Apollo 12 was launched into a threatening gray sky with ominous cumulus clouds. Pete Conrad’s words 43 seconds after liftoff, electrified everyone in the Control Center: “We had a whole bunch of buses drops out,” followed by “Where are we going?” and “I just lost the platform.” Lightning had stricken the spacecraft. Warning lights were illuminated, and the spacecraft guidance system lost its attitude reference.

    Flight controller John Aaron made a call, “Flight, EECOM. Try SCE to Aux”, to switch the SCE (signal conditioning electronics) to a backup power supply. The switch was fairly obscure, and neither Flight Director Gerald Griffin nor Conrad knew what it was; astronaut Alan Bean knew where to find it and threw the switch, after which the telemetry came back online, revealing no significant malfunctions. The flight was not aborted and the mission was successful. Aaron’s call “SCE to Aux” remains legendary.

    From AlabamaWX

    RADAR CHECK: As advertised, rain is widespread across Alabama early this morning with temperatures in the upper 40s and low 50s in most spots. Rain will end across West Alabama later this morning, and the final batch of showers should move out of East Alabama by mid-afternoon. Otherwise, today will be cloudy with cool with a high in the low to mid 50s. The average high for Birmingham on November 15 is 65.

    [​IMG]

    The sky will clear tonight, and tomorrow will be a dry day with a partly sunny sky… the high will be in the 52-56 degree range. Thursday and Friday will feature a sunny sky both days, but temperatures remain well below average. The high Thursday will be in the upper 40s, followed by low 50s Friday… morning lows will be in the 20s.

    THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Expect sunny cool days and clear cold nights. Highs in the 50s, lows in the 24-32 degree range.

    NEXT WEEK: The weather will stay dry Monday and Tuesday with highs generally in the 50s. Then, we rise into the low 60s over the latter half of the week. Global model data suggests the next rain event will come around Thanksgiving Day (Thursday), but it is way too early to be specific concerning timing, rain amounts, etc. See the daily Weather Briefing video for maps, graphics, and more details.

    [​IMG]

    TROPICS: The Atlantic basin is quiet, and tropical storm formation is not expected through the weekend. Hurricane season ends at the end of this month.

    ON THIS DATE IN 1989: An F4 tornado tore through the southern part of Huntsville around 4:30 p.m.; it was responsible for 21 deaths 463 injuries. It touched down near Madkin Mountain on Redstone Arsenal, southwest of Huntsville. The tornado moved northeast towards the heavily-populated Airport Road area, where it would destroy or damage 80 businesses, 3 churches, a dozen apartment buildings, and more than 1,000 cars. It moved on, climbing over Garth Mountain, demolishing Jones Valley Elementary School, and destroying 259 homes in the Jones Valley area. The tornado was on the ground for just over 18 miles; twelve of the 21 fatalities occurred in automobiles as many persons were homeward bound during the afternoon rush hour.

    The tornado warning came late; this was before Doppler Radar was operational.

    ON THIS DATE IN 2007: Tropical Cyclone Sidr, a Category 4 storm on the Saffir-Simpson scale, brings torrential rain 150-mph winds and a four ft storm surge to the Bangladesh coast. At least 3200 people die, and millions are left homeless. Since records began in 1877, Sidr obtained the title of the second-strongest cyclone to make landfall in Bangladesh.
