Alabama thread!

Someone just said Amber Turner is still running King of Hammer in her Samurai, refuses to quit

 

It got me up and down the Coosa, between Neely Henry and Weiss Lake dams, perfectly!

 

She finished, broke a leafspring

 

What a mess

 

Really nice weather this morning..

 

Yep, I have a new stream/river going through my back yard. Standing water on the road out in front of the house. Fun stuff! Wyatt saw all the water and immediately ask if he can ride the 4wheeler this afternoon to play in it

 

haha that's great, exactly how I was when I was a kid. now that I'm old and crabby I'm like "can it please just dry up for a few days so I can do some yard work?"

 

it got a little rowdy along AL 119...

 

Mornin' friends

From AlabamaWX

RADAR CHECK: Rain and thunderstorms cover most of Alabama this morning as a long wave upper trough and cold front move in from the west.


Here are the current watches and warnings as of daybreak…

*Flash flood watch remains in effect for most of the state through this evening.
*A flash flood warning is in effect for the southern part of the Birmingham metro; it will expire at 6:30
*A tornado watch is in effect for parts of East and South Alabama until 12:00 noon.



*SPC has continues an “enhanced risk” (level 3/5) of severe thunderstorms today for the southeast part of the state… storms there will be capable of producing hail, damaging winds, and a few tornadoes.



Rain will continue today across all of Alabama, but it will taper off this afternoon from northwest to southeast. Temperatures will go the wrong way; many places are in the 60s early this morning, but they will fall through the 50s today, winding up in the 40s by mid to late afternoon. It will be quite the change from the recent warmth. Additional rain amounts of 1-2 inches are forecast today.

SNOW FLAKES? High resolution models show just enough moisture left late tonight and tomorrow morning for a few snow flurries or showers across the northern third of Alabama. We expect no impact with temperatures in the mid 30s, and very light precipitation amounts. Then, we expect clearing during the day Frida with a high in the 47-50 degree range.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: A fast moving weather disturbance will bring clouds, and maybe a touch of scattered light rain to the state Saturday, but moisture will be very limited, and rain amounts will be light. Saturday’s high will be in the mid 50s. Then, on Sunday, with ample sunshine temperatures rise into the low to mid 60s.

NEXT WEEK: Moist air returns quickly to the state and we will have a chance of rain at times just about every day next week with highs in the 60s. The coldest air in the nation will remain out over the western states.

PRE-DAWN TORNADO WARNINGS: A few short lived tornadoes developed across Central Alabama after midnight and early this morning. There was some damage at Helena, in Shelby County, but no reports of any injuries.

 

@InfernoChalupa and others in the B’ham area, y’all ok? Saw some flooding in your area in the news this morning. Folks were evacuating some spots. We had to get to our crawl space at 3am this morning for tornado warnings.

 

HWY 119 was flooded like crazy this morning. Y’all be safe out and about lots of trees down.

 

That’s the one that Lake Purdy is on right?

 

Yes sir

 

100% boy haha... let him have fun and rip the yard up!!

 

Spann is out sick today.

 

your time to shine!

 

Yeah, I was surprised to see Megan on the news last night instead of James.

 

I told him that he could ride in the yard today and I would show him how to fix ruts on Saturday. He didn't like that idea much.

 

Admitting it is the 1st step to recovery.

 

coming from Mr Old and Crabby himself, I do appreciate advice from the experienced.
