Lots of Changes

The morning web video is on the server:

Here are the highlights:

*Little ripple comes through the flow late tonight, but dry air means minimal chance of rain. We have mentioned a few sprinkles, but nothing beyond that.

*Colder air slips back in here on Thursday and Friday, and the "wedge" could set up somewhat colder temperatures over northeast Alabama by Friday and Saturday.

*A fairly weak disturbance could bring some light rain in here late Friday, Friday night, and Saturday morning. The 06Z GFS shows very little rain with this feature.

*Looks like the next shot at some decent rain amounts will be early next week on Monday and Monday night.

*The Arctic Oscillation spikes negative toward mid-February. Our weather generally looks cold in the February 5-15 time frame, with a few interesting clippers showing up on the longer range GFS output. Still no sign of a Gulf storm packed with moisture, however. See the video for details.

Busy day today... headed to Jasper to see some school kids and then back to town for a packed afternoon schedule. Getting set for Storm Alert 2005... hope you can make one of the stops; looks like a great show this year!
