OK, we all know it will probably change, but at least it's good to not see the predicted high in the 100's like it has been every day for a long time.

Man i sure could deal with 92 degrees and between 6-10 it'll probably be in the 80's if this predictions stand...much better than 114.
Amen. My car told me it was 114 today when i got in it...granted it dropped down to 107 after a while, but still.
That's what the thermometer in my car read too. But the difference is I wasn't sitting still - I had been driving for about 30 minutes. There is a stretch of road on US280 through Inverness that is in a low lying area, and Double Oak Mountain blocks any breeze. The road has also been recently repaved and the heat just rises out of the road. I think that combination helped that 114 reading last for about 5 miles.
ahhh... 90 degree weather in Alabama..... it must mean that :biggrin2:
:rolleye2::eek2::biggrin:Fall is on the way
:rolleye2::eek2::biggrin:Fall is on the wayDid not look at the forcast but I'm going out on a limb and say it is going to be HOT(95), HUMID, with a 10-20 chance of a THUNDERSTORM.
How true is that?:biggrin2: Don't you all wish you could be wrong 80% of the time on your job and KEEP your job?
Man, what a life they live. They make predictions that are normally wrong with the exception of when there is a Low pressure system near us and then they said there is a 50% chance of rain today; or when there is a High pressure system near us and there is a 0% chance of rain, with the "SLIGHT" possibility of an afternoon shower. Good lord if you look up the word vague in the dictionary it should have a picture of any "Meteorologist"!
Finally what gets me is when there is severe weather in our area. They stand there on TV for hours telling you NOTHING. Then the national weather service issues a Tornado watch and they have to explain what that means, (LIKE WE DON'T LIVE IN ALABAMA) 20 times and then they'll get word that a warning has been issued and again they talk for hours and say nothing. Why can't they just break in to our program when there is a real need to do so? Why do they have to talk for hours about something that "may or may not" happen? Just tell me when it's supposed to happen and then when it WILL and I'll take the appropriate action...I'm not in idiot and I don't want to become a Meteorologist, so I don't really have to know how and why you know what you know...I believe you! I also know you're wrong most of the time and frankly that annoys me. WOW THAT FELT GOOD! :eek2::biggrin:
I recall the summer of 2002 when I missed every new episode of the Simpsons because at precisely 5:30 every day we had thunderstorms. Thunderstorms. I called FOX 6 one day in disgust asking if the James was going to be off by 6:00. The reply was when the National Weather Service rescinds its warning. The warning was for a Tornado in MISSISSIPPI!
Anyone that reads forecast about the weather before heading out into the gulf for a day of fishing knows how little they are right.
Outside the normal 20-30% percent chance of rain (which is tattooed on the forecast in the summer) all they know about Sat. night is that it is going to be dark.
Wow, talk about some hatred around here. Two points; go to metr. school for four years and you'll understand how really difficult it is to predict something you can't control. Also, go without a forecast for a week or two in the fall or spring and let me know how it feels to have no clue what's going on. :tongue:
Being a meteorologist, this is all I'll say....lol...
METEOROLOGY:
TAKE A LARGE ALMOST ROUND ROTATING SPHERE 8000 MILES IN DIAMETER,
SURROUND IT WITH A MURKY VISCOUS ATMOSPHERE OF GASES MIXED WITH
WATER VAPOR, TILT ITS AXIS SO IT WOBBLES WITH RESPECT TO A SOURCE
OF HEAT AND LIGHT, FREEZE BOTH ENDS AND ROAST THE MIDDLE, COVER
75% WITH CIRCULATING LIQUID, ALWAYS ADDING WATER VAPOR CHANGING
FROM LIQUID TO ICE TO VAPOR, PULL THE WATER UP AND DOWN TO THE
RYTHM OF THE SUN AND MOON...
NOW PREDICT WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN AN AREA WITH A 5 MILE RADIUS ONE
TO FIVE DAYS FROM NOW.

Something will thats for sure. Aren't all of those variables known now? Can't they be accounted for?:wink:
It will be 11:13 on Wed. and I'll be goofing off at work. Of course that is in my area, my forecast is limited to is to my own 5 mile radius.:biggrin2:
