"Tammy" Makes It Clammy, Front To Slammy

This is another shot from a series of pictures I took back in July as a front had passed through Southern Illinois around sunset. I like the play of color and light on the clouds with the foreground trees in silhouette. Once in awhile you get lucky.
We're getting lucky once again with "Tammy's" remnants. Much needed rainfall is pushing northward into the Tennessee Valley this morning. This moves through today with a secondary slug of moisture coming up from a piece of "Stan" heading toward the Southeast U.S..
So here's the deal: Rainy periods today through Friday evening. But amounts are going to vary quite a bit from northwest to southeast. I would expect average rainfall amounts from 1/4" to 1/2" from Chattanooga and points northwest of the city. 1/2" to 3/4" from Fort Payne to LaFayette to Athens. 3/4"+ from Rome to Chatsworth to Etowah. More than 1" from Jasper, Ga to Ellijay to Andrews.
Friday night football fans should be dry west of I-75, but some showers will be possible east of there.
Then a great weekend ahead. Here's a comparison of the last 4 days and the next 4 days:

The Warm Stuff First
  1. Sunday - 87
  2. Monday - 85
  3. Tuesday - 85
  4. Yesterday - 86

The Cool Stuff Ahead

  1. Today - 77
  2. Friday - 68
  3. Saturday - 70
  4. Sunday - 72

So after "Tammy" makes it clammy, enjoy a dry and cool weekend ahead!
