Alabama thread!

Good morning Phil, you sleep well?

 

I did.....plus I got to ride the bike this morning......

 

YOSH all the way.

 

Morning guys.

 

That's what I'm leaning towards. The Yosh slip-on is $549, the full is $649(so worth the extra hundo for a header). Headers from other companies are $300....so even with the BW and a header.....I'd be over $700 anyway. Plus, I would earn $32.45 in Zilla cash on the Yosh

 

Morning fellers, just killed breakfast and time to see if I can start getting the garden under control.

ENDING OFF THE WORKWEEK
Some of us will continue to see some lingering effects from the former closed-off low as it moves farther away from Central Alabama. There is only a small chance of scattered showers and storms over the eastern-third of the area, while the rest stays dry. Highs in the mid to upper 80s.

THIS WEEKEND
Saturday will feature plenty of sunshine, but the heat begins its return as highs top out in the upper 80s to the lower 90s. Sunday shows a return of scattered showers and storms as a cold front approaches and moves into the area late. Much of the activity will happen during the late afternoon through the evening hours. Highs in the mid 80s to the lower 90s.

MUCH OF NEXT WEEK
A chance of scattered showers and storms continue on Monday as the cold front moves through and out of the area. A few strong storms may be possible, but severe weather may stay north of the state. Highs reach the mid 80s to the lower 90s. Ridging starts to take over our weather pattern on Tuesday, and much of the area will be dry and hot, but we can’t rule out an isolated shower or storm in the extreme southern parts. Highs in the upper 80s to the lower 90s.

On Wednesday, we’ll have a very small chance of a few isolated to scattered showers and storms during the afternoon, as a lingering boundary looks to move back northward into the area. Highs in the upper 80s to the lower 90s. And at the end of the forecast period on Thursday, more heat builds in from the west with the strengthening ridge. A few scattered afternoon showers and storms will be possible, but not a lot of us will get relief from the heat. Highs in the lower to mid 90s.

THE TROPICS



Tropical Storm Brett is producing gusty winds and heavy rain over portions of the Windward Islands this morning, with maximum sustained winds at 60 mph. A weakening trend will start today as it moves west across the eastern Caribbean Sea, and is forecast to dissipate by Saturday night or Sunday



Tropical Storm Cindy is churning away over the open water of the tropical Atlantic, with maximum sustained winds at 45 mph and a minimum central pressure of 1005 mb. Cindy is expected to strengthen gradually over the next couple of days before increasing wind shear starts a weakening trend. The forecast shows that she will become post-tropical or a remnant low by Wednesday. Cindy is no threat to land

ON THIS DAY IN WEATHER HISTORY
1944 – Four tornadoes killed 153 persons and caused five million dollars damage in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Maryland. The tornadoes formed during the evening and moved southeast along parallel paths flattening everything in their way. The town of Shinnston WV was leveled, and was left with the majority of the causalities. Until that time it was believed that damaging tornadoes did not travel across mountainous terrain.

 

Sup Stevie

Sup Mike

 

Went to get some diesel for the tractor, 10 gallons mower gas and filled the truck up . Over 110 dollars

 

Damn

 

My thoughts exactly, and then I'm back home. Starts raining!

 

Uh oh my Google fu , has found a Toyota I've never heard of. It's called the toyota scout , supposed to be competition for the Ford Maverick

 

The Scout was made back in the 60's

 

I’ve seen that. As a former Ford fan and Maverick owner, I hope Toyota crushes Ford all around.

 

You didn't own that Maverick long enough to count That thing still had the nipples on the tires when you sold it


and for a profit.....I don't blame ya

 

By IH. Is it supposed to be the Toyota Stout? Also made back in yesteryear.

 

Oh I think that's the 1 that was similar to the brat , I think that's what it was called?

 

The Subaru Brat?

 

It was before the Toyota Truck of the 70's

I was reading "Stout" and not "Scout"

 

I don’t regret it a bit either. Hell they keep having recalls.

 

My 1st car was a 74 Ford Maverick with a 302 in it , baby blue . Ahhhh the good Ole days. Then I gotta wild hair with my cousin and put a 351 Windsor in it. Oh yeah, that thing would scream.
