A quick note before heading out the door for Anniston...
The 12Z NAM is coming in wetter and a little colder for BOB over the weekend. The extraction from the NAM run now shows 0.68" for Birmingham with the temp at 850 mb (5000 feet) 0.6 degrees (C). The lowest 2,000 feet will be above freezing, however. Still looks like a cold rain for the I-20 corridor tomorrow night... maybe some sleet mixed in.
The colder run will make us pause and think about northeast Alabama tomorrow night... a wintry mix could be a little more likely north of U.S. 278... especially over parts of Etowah, Cherokee, DeKalb, and Jackson counties. Even up there tempertaures should remain a little above freezing.
But, remember the models have been struggling with the thermal fields lately.
I will have a full post and video by 3:30...
