Weather for the final days of 2009 and first few of 2010 is looking very much like winter, for us and much of the country. The overall pattern will consist of an upper level trough in the eastern U.S. and a ridge in the West, allowing for the delivery of some pretty cold air masses [...]

The last weekend of 2009 should be a dry one for us here in Alabama, thanks to a high-pressure center now over Mobile.  A few clouds may form on Sunday, but the atmosphere at the surface is quite dry—with dew points in the 20s and 30s—and we’re not likely to see precipitation reach the ground [...]
