Alabama Weather (original) (raw)
Many more schools are closing early. So, any kiddies that you got to pick up from school, you might want to check to see if your school is closing.
They have placed most of Alabama under a tornado watch until 6:00 pm.
Stay tuned to local radio and TV ...
Blah, blah, blah, I figure you all know the drill =)
I have heard that they are still working on a timeline for when the weather is suppose to turn rough. They are saying supercells, tornados, hail and straight line winds could happen.
There is already a couple of school systems that is closing early. Cullman County at noon and Cullman City at 1. They are thinking the rest of the school systems may fall into line with them.
Just watch out, and keep a NOAA weather radio nearby if you have one.

Alrighty folks, lets see if we can get this community going. Alabama weather is anything but boring. Well, at least, most of the time. HAHA
A system is suppose to be coming through the state tomorrow. It is hot here for the time of year it is. Hitting close to 70F.
This is copied and pasted from channel 19's website:
A few showers and thunderstorms are possible after midnight - especially in the Shoals. Strong to severe storms will move through the Tennessee Valley tomorrow afternoon. Severe storms are possible as early as noon in the Shoals tomorrow. The main threat is damaging winds, but isolated tornadoes are possible. Expect cooler temperatures over the upcoming weekend.
Maybe will get some good pictures? If I managed to get at least one, I will post.

As everyone knows, today is the first day of the Atlantic Hurricane Season. Here is the list of names for 2006:
Tsunami warnings were issued for Fiji and New Zealand after a massive earthquake measuring about 7.8 in magnitude shook the southern Pacific Ocean.
The quake's epicenter was about 153 kilometers (95 miles) off the coast of Tonga, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
It struck Thursday at 4:26 a.m in Tonga (Wednesday at 1526 GMT).
EDIT: Warning canceled.
