Forget the Models - Look out the window

The rain is just now reaching the Birmingham metro area. The rain should be just about gone around noon. Which looks good for the tailgating party and the football game today at Legion field. The top regional view is at 6:26 am and the bottom is 6:14 am.



This is the infrared image at 5:45 am this morning. As you can see the clouds are already moving out of Memphis, so this afternoon the sky will be clearing.

18z Models for 3A Championship game

Leeds v. Cordova 3A championship football game tomorrow at Legion Field continues to look wetter with every model run. The 18z (12 noon today) run looks wetter than the 12z (6 am) run. Not only are the model runs wetter but they are also slower in the passage of the rain. If I was going to the game tomorrow, which I wish I was, I would have rain gear not only for the tailgate party but for the entire game. Remember, no umbrellas allowed inside the stadium.
