LithiaWx Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 If you're still seeing fog, it probably won't last very long. All the fog has burned off here, temps are up into the low 60s and I'm seeing small breaks in the clouds here. EDIT: Now the sun is starting to peak out. Yep temps are steadily rising here too with a break or two in the clouds time to time. It's already in the low 60's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaculaWeather Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 The fog has not burned off like I thought it would.... I wonder if it might be our saving grace or if nothing else keep the sun from destablizing the atmosphere more ahead of the system? I'm down near Snellville and it's gone from here. It was much worse up where we live this morning than it was down here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsaur Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I've been in heavy clouds, but the temp is 65.6. Looking forward to some rain, but hope the tdevils find another path. I'm tried of hearing Brooks get warned. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down toward duluth just 15 miles south and temp has risen to 61 degrees already. No fog here. * made it down to Buckhead area.....sun is now coming out.....temp up to 67 degrees.

DAWGNKITTEN Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Heavy cloud cover here in Tiger, sitting at 52 degrees, a chilly 52. Looks like if I stay this way, then I shouldn't have to worry about anything severe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got 3 around the yard, but only one is working where I am now. The Experiment Station is reading 65 also. I'll go down to my house and check the other sensors via the reciever down there...but by feel, I'd say it is right at 70. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One sensor at home. I wouldn't have another location to put a second sensor at home. I had to build a "case" out of wood just to shield the one I have at home from sun and rain lol.

LithiaWx Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Strong line of convection down in the gulf robbing us of our snow severe wx. Not sure it works that way. I think with a vertical line there is no impact. Now if it went Horizontal then that would be a different story, then again I could be completely wrong too.

audioguy3107 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Storms don't look too impressive, especially on the northern section of the line. Still doesn't look like anything is gonna fire in advance of the line either. Still some time to go, but looks like down south of I-20 may be the main action.

degadylan77 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 The NWS will allow the tornado warning to expire. The rotation has weakened. It is about to pass between Verbena and Clanton along I-65/US-31. Tornado watch continues until 5 p.m. for East Central and South Central Alabama, but the best threat of severe weather will mainly to the south Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OVERNIGHT MINIMUM TEMPERATURE FORECAST ABOVE GUIDANCE DUE TO CLOUDS/WARM ADVECTION AHEAD OF FRONT. -- End Changed Discussion -- Yup! Those thunderstorms in the Gulf are draining the energy from this line. The moisture just can't make it past those storms... It's possible that Columbus and central Georgia see a few light to moderate showers and that's it! I'll tell you though, I wouldn't want to be in the way of those storms in the Gulf on a boat. They look nasty! It sure is warm! We made it to 73. EDIT: I was afraid this would happen (lack of rain, not severe)... This is what I wrote to my chief yesterday: Tomorrow night: Storms will weaken as they approach. The position of the low is KEY in this kind of set-up. The low will track right over us, or just north, allowing the worst of the weather to be across southern Alabama and Georgia. That’s not to see we won’t see a few strong storms, but the overall threat should be to our south. Another factor would be the line of storms in the Gulf shutting off the moisture feed for us. Rain totals will range from .5” to 1.5” depending on where the heaviest rain sets up shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
