    Yup we had some. It was a little overcooked in my opinion. Rubbery chicken but really good flavor.

    Thanks for additional pics. Have found some timber rattlers on my 44 acres near Huntsville and area has has huge rock gardens so there are probably plenty more. Don't like to kill anything I don't eat but if they are near my cabin they are taken out. Creepy they are but also beautiful, just potentially deadly. Let us know when you plan to take one to church for services!!!

    The weather in south Alabama is absolutely perfect this afternoon. Doing a little glamping in Foley with the family this week.

    Looking for opinions. So we'd like to use Tiffany's 4runner to tow our enclosed trailer with 2 moto's in it. I hooked it up the other day and it really sags in the rear. I would like to add some heavy duty springs without the 2.5" to 3" of lift. Do any of you guys know of a company that has heavy duty springs without the huge lift. If I have to go bilstein front and rear that's fine but I don't want over an inch of lift. I did find from yota expedition a 1" spring with no load. Just curious if you guy know of anything.

    We put dobenson on my son 2008 4Runner. Got like 2” lift and rode smooth. If I remember correctly they were rated for 400-500 lbs. before sagging an inch.

    From AlabamaWX

    DRY THROUGH FRIDAY: Alabama’s weather will stay dry through Friday with partly to mostly sunny days and fair nights. Highs will be generally in the 75-80 degree range today, followed by low 80s tomorrow and Friday.

    THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Moist air returns to Alabama Saturday with occasional showers and a thunderstorm or two. Not expecting any severe storms, and it won’t be a total wash-out, but occasional rain is likely with a high in the 70s.

    It sure looks like a decent part of Sunday will be dry, although a few scattered showers are certainly possible. The day will be warm and breezy with a high in the low 80s. Then, a dynamic storm system will bring an organized batch of showers and storms into the state late Sunday night (mainly after midnight) into Monday. All 67 Alabama counties are in a severe weather risk defined by SPC for this event.

    Models continue to trend slower. The main risk of severe storms for North Alabama will come from around midnight Sunday night through noon Monday, with the risk of the rest for the southern 2/3 of the state from 4:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. Monday. And it looks like all modes of severe weather will be possible, including large hail, damaging winds, and a few tornadoes. We will be much more specific about the magnitude of the event and the timing later this week.

    REST OF NEXT WEEK: For now the weather looks dry Tuesday and Wednesday, followed by another chance of rain and thunderstorms Thursday and Friday. Models suggest we will have the warmest weather so far this year by the end of the week with mid 80s possible… See the video briefing for maps, graphics, and more details.

    [​IMG]

    LAST FREEZE? Have we experienced the last freeze of the season? Maybe; maybe not. Models show no chance of a freeze (or frost) through April 8, but long time Alabama residents know we almost always have a late season cold snap toward mid-April. The advice remains the same… I would wait until April 15 to plant anything that would be harmed by frost or a freeze.

    ON THIS DATE IN 2011: An EF-1 tornado moved through parts of Shelby County; it touched down near the intersection of County Road 10 and Homeland Way in the Aldrich Community near Montevallo.

    ON THIS DATE IN 2023: An EF-1 tornado moved across Lake Martin; it was down for a little over seven miles.
