NOTES:

Here is the latest on the storm surveys from the Birmingham's area's tornado outbreak the other morning.

And here is a look at what NOAA/NWS expects for the rest of this winter, nationwide.

DISCUSSION:



We've had some clouds coming and going, but overall it's been a lovely day across the Tennessee Valley - and as you've noticed if you've been outside at all, fairly warm. Breezy from the south/southeast ahead of this warm front, which has brought us the warmer temperatures and is out ahead of this closed low out west that will bring us some heavy rains tomorrow.

Friday we should be clearing out as a cold front pushes this on through - cooling into the 50's.

Weekend looks AWESOME with plenty of sunshine and seasonable temperatures. A reinforcing cool front coming through Saturday night, so Sunday should be our coldest day, with Highs probably not making it out of the 40's. Lows might even dip into the mid 20's is my gut feeling here.

First of next week, temperatures start to moderate. Tuesday we cloud up again, probably in upper 50's. Wednesday we may see more rain chances as another cool front approaches.

So just be careful tomorrow with the flash flood risk - take it slower on the roads, and if you come to water that crosses the road, follow the cliche' - turn around, don't drown.

And then . . . awesome weather for just about the whole forecast period. Couldn't ask for better January weather.

See you in the funny papers. Yes, I think I'm back to doing them - just not FaceBook. And not as much farting around as before - keep it professional. Lord knows I fart around and goof around enough in everyday life . . . and I think my wackiness should stay there overall . . . too many people doing it on the interwebs these days. Ho hum.
