Alabama thread!

So it's more of a social visit with a lot of snooping.

 

I always have heat on me. We live in a crazy world where evil walks among us now. My family and I, we just refuse to be a victim.

 

I had to get a rental car and they gave me a ranger with the Offroad package lol. It was in 4high when I got in. Some dumb ass was probably driving around town in 4 high lol

 

So if you HAD to get a ride, are you going to try to be unnoticeable and act like you got lost in the neighborhood and stop to ask for directions?

 

It was raining pretty hard during lunch. Me and my buddy had a little extra time. One of the girls at lunch knew of a trail near us. All the stars aligned and I got some mud on my tires.
Location:HWY 150 in Hoover right past Academy. Short trail that puts you out near Riverchase.

 

I’m in and out of government buildings for work but otherwise I’m in complete agreement.

 

Attitude you need to make it through this world. If twas me, I would even carry some heavier firepower in my car/truck.

 

Sounds like your ready to go Mad Max on someone.

 

I miss riding. I think I’m gonna slowly turn my 2nd gen into a dedicated off road rig.

 

Who’s to say that I don’t do that as well. My pistol is for fighting my way to a long gun.

Goodnight everyone

 

Good morning everyone, have a great and blessed day. Be safe out there in the rain.

 

Good morning

 

Morning!

 

Morning guys.

 

Good morning boys

 

Morning to all!

 

From AlabamaWX

RADAR CHECK: Rain is fairly widespread over the northern half of Alabama early this morning; we note a few strong thunderstorms as well with small hail. Rain will end from northwest to southeast later this morning as dry air begins to arrive, and by afternoon showers will be confined to the southern counties. Expect a mostly afternoon for North/Central Alabama with a high in the 60s.

Tonight will be clear and cold with lows in the 30s across North Alabama… a few colder spots might briefly touch the freezing mark.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Tomorrow will be a mostly sunny day with highs in the 60s and 70s. Then, a fast moving system will bring rain and storms back into the state Sunday. SPC has introduced a “slight risk” (level 2/5) of severe thunderstorms for areas along and south of I-20, and a “marginal risk” (level 1/5) for North Alabama.



The main window for strong to severe thunderstorms will come from roughly 2:00 until 9:00 p.m… and the main threats will involve hail and strong straight line winds. But, an isolated tornado can’t be totally ruled out. Temperatures will rise into the 65-75 degree range Sunday afternoon.

NEXT WEEK: The sky becomes mostly sunny following the passage of a cold front, and highs drop into the 50s over the northern half of the state, with 60s to the south. The headline is the threat of a late season freeze Tuesday and Wednesday morning; lows will drop into the 25-35 degree range across North/Central Alabama both mornings. Some frost is possible down into South Alabama early Wednesday with a clear sky and light wind.

The weather will be dry Monday through Thursday, but rain is possible at the end of the week Friday as a cold front passes through the state. For now it doesn’t look like a severe weather threat. See the daily Weather Briefing video for maps, graphics, and more details.



ON THIS DATE IN 1884: John Park Finley issued the first experimental tornado prediction. Finley studied the atmospheric parameters that were present during previous tornadoes. Many of these same criteria are still used by operational forecasters today. But the use of tornado forecasts would be banned just a few years later and remain forbidden until 1952.

ON THIS DATE IN 1986: Severe thunderstorms and tornadoes hit Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio. A total of 19 tornadoes occurred. Three of the tornadoes in Indiana reached F3 intensity. A densely populated subdivision of Southeast Lexington, Kentucky, was heavily damaged by a tornado. Twenty people were injured, and 900 homes were destroyed or demolished. A very strong thunderstorm downburst hit the Cincinnati area. At the Greater Cincinnati Airport, windows were blown out of the control tower, injuring the six controllers on duty.

 

Morning folks, don't forget to turn your clocks up an hour this weekend. I also change batteries in everything and rotate my mattress.
