Alabama thread!

Good morning Jeff.

 

Morning Bama!

 

Good morning Jonny.

 

Morning Barrie. I’m dragging ass this morning.

 

Morning all! Should be an interesting day with hardly no sleep last night. Happy Monday!!!

 

Any of you guys know who to call for yard drainage problems? This will be a big job with lots of dirt to relocate. I've got to do something to get the water away from our foundation and off our septic tank.

Is this in the wheelhouse of a landscaper?

 

Good morning Bart.

Good morning Mike.

 

From AlabamaWX

RADAR CHECK: Rain is still falling early this morning across parts of Southeast Alabama, but that rain will end soon, and a decent part of the day ahead will be dry. Clouds will linger however, and we will see a big temperature spread with highs ranging from the 50s over North Alabama to the 70s near the coast. Any showers tonight should be few and far between.

TOMORROW THROUGH THURSDAY: A disturbed southwest flow will stay in place through mid-week with very little sun. We will forecast some light rain at times tomorrow and Wednesday, followed by a good soaking Thursday as the main wave passes through. Rain amounts between now and Thursday night will be in the 2-3 inch range over North Alabama, with 1-2 inches for the south.

A large temperature range will continue tomorrow. Those around Muscle Shoals and Florence could very well hold in the upper 30s much of the state, while Mobile reaches the low to mid 70s. Most Alabama communities will be in the 50s and 60s, however. And, we note there is an ice storm warning in effect for Memphis along with parts of West Tennessee, North Mississippi, and East Arkansas. Freezing rain is expected to bring significant ice accumulation in these areas, possibly enough for power outages. Freezing rain issues are expected to the west into parts of Texas as well.



FRIDAY AND THE WEEKEND: Dry air returns Friday with a clearing sky, and Saturday will feature sunshine in full supply. A disturbance will bring some clouds Sunday along with some risk of light rain. Temperatures over the weekend will be seasonal with highs in the 50s and 60s.

NEXT WEEK: Monday and Tuesday look rain-free, but rain will will likely return at mid-week on Wednesday. Drier air follows by Thursday and Friday. Still no sign of any bitterly cold, Arctic air through mid-February. See the daily Weather Briefing video for maps, graphics, and more details.



ON THIS DATE IN 1966: The Blizzard of 1966 impacted New York and paralyzed the region. The train service was disrupted. Numerous highways, the New York State Thruway from Albany to the Pennsylvania state line, and the Buffalo Airport and other airports throughout western and central New York were closed. The Syracuse-Oswego area’s hardest hit, where Bob Sykes, a meteorology professor at the State University of New York at Oswego, reported a whopping 102.4 inches.

To the south, brutally cold Arctic air invaded the Deep South. Birmingham’s low on January 30, 1966 was -4F.

ON THIS DATE IN 2013: Six tornadoes down across North Alabama. Some of the most significant damage was across parts of Lamar, Winston, Walker, Fayette, and Cullman counties.

 

Morning fellas

 

Good morning

 

Made a seat delete yesterday for Jasmine. The RTT was just getting too cramped for all of us to sleep up there. Turned out good I’d say!

 

Cheapest thing might be to call some septic people to see if they will recommend someone. Flip side would be an engineer. Civil or Biosystems probably.

 

Jasmine!

 

I'm going to have to call the septic people eventually to redo the entire system. It needs to be relocated away from the house and put on a pump. I think the landscaper and septic people will have to work in unison to fix this. Oh and we also need new shingles on the roof.

 

Morning guys.

 

Good afternoon

 

Might try Creative Habitat. I believe they did some drainage work for my neighbor in his back yard.

Roof we used Goat Roofing. Chase is the owner. I can send you his number. Tell him Bart referred you.

 

Bilstein 5100's on 4th notch and HeadStrong Progressive AAL in the rear completed this evening. I did the ECGS bushing while I was there. Took a test drive and I'm very happy with the ride. I really like how smooth the TRD Off Road was but it had some roll to it when cornering. 5100's firmed that up a little and not too harsh at all so far. 265/70r17 Toyo AT3 SL. Thanks again Phil for the loaner ECGS puller, I'll ship it to you with the ECGS insertion tool I made along with a few buck for shipping.

 

Goodnight everyone, sleep well

 

Good morning Bama! Up early getting ready to go to Birmingham for a meeting today. Looks like it might be a foggy drive.
