@JBTacoma

You got a line on a decent Sami?

I’m looking for something to use as a farm run-a-round.

 

Need to get trailer back on the road for a trip like this. Tons of river/creek crossings make it an epic trip!

 

You can find a lot of decent ones to buy. But ever since Hagerty said they were "One of the 10 collector cars to buy" a few years ago the price is crazy. Even the bad ones are crazy high,

Good morning David.

We got a lot of rain yesterday late morning.

 

From AlabamaWX



Radar at 5:54AM shows that much of the state is dry as we wake up this morning except for some shower activity over the southeastern parts of the state and over the Alabama Gulf Coast. No big deal for now, but that will be a different story as we move into the afternoon hours.



While no severe weather is expected in Alabama this morning, there is a significant threat for severe weather shaping up for this afternoon through the overnight hours tonight for the entire state, including a moderate risk for severe storms over portions of extreme western and southwestern Alabama

 

Good morning everyone, have a great and blessed Saturday.

 

New tie rod’s finally came in. CV will be here Monday. Man it’s cutting it close lol.

So much beef.

 

From AlabamaWX



With the lack of destabilization taking place across Alabama, NWS Birmingham has adjusted the timing for the severe weather threat window for tonight and into tomorrow morning.

While the above image shows the counties covered by NWS Birmingham, it gives the best depiction of the timing. I’ll stretch it out to cover everyone in the state as far as this timing. For locations west of a line from Huntsville to Brookwood to Mobile, the threat window will be from 7PM to 1AM Sunday. East of that, the threat window will be from 10PM to 4AM Sunday. And for locations east of a line from Heflin to Alexander City to Greenville, the threat window will be from 2AM to 7AM Sunday. We could see tornadoes, some of which could be strong, long-track tornadoes in the enhanced and moderate risk locations, damaging winds up to and possibly exceeding 70 mph, and hail up to ping pong ball size in diameter.



The Significant Tornado Parameter values coming off of the latest ensembles show that there is a major tornado threat over the southwest portions of Alabama and into the southern half of Mississippi and down into eastern Louisiana. Some of these values are topping out around 7.25. Any value over 1.0 means that there will be the risk of a significant tornado… 7.25 means there is a greater risk.

Major damage from a violent tornado near Bude, Mississippi was just shared on X. The Image shows a home has been completely obliterated and at least a half-mile wide track of snapped trees.

 

Thanks for the update.

 

The National Weather Service in Mobile has issued a Tornado Warning for southwestern Choctaw County and northwestern Washington County in southwestern Alabama, as well as east-central Wayne County in southeastern Mississippi, effective until 10:00 PM CST. At 9:36 PM CST, a severe thunderstorm capable of producing a tornado was located 6 miles southeast of Waynesboro, moving east at 40 mph. Radar indicated rotation within the storm, posing a significant tornado threat.

This tornadic thunderstorm is expected to affect mainly rural areas of southwestern Choctaw, northwestern Washington, and east-central Wayne counties. The tornado may produce dangerous flying debris, which poses a threat to anyone caught without shelter. Mobile homes may be damaged or destroyed, and damage to roofs, windows, and vehicles is likely. Tree damage is also possible.

TAKE COVER NOW! Move to a basement or an interior room on the lowest floor of a sturdy building, away from windows.
