South/Gulf FLA weather

[criminaldesign]

What's this I hear of a hurricane in the south?

What's the insider knowledge on the info?
I'm heading that direction tomorrow.

Thanks in advance. h

You may get some rain on the west coast or the panhandle.
Stay east or bring a rain suit. Do not worry, ride happy.

The talking heads say 6/8 inches in central Al later this week.Today it is cloudy with patches of blue sky here South of Birmingham.Going for a ride in about 10 min or so will have better info when I get back later this afternoon..

Thanks guys, I opted for an instate travel over the weekend instead of heading south. It was a last minute change while on the bike leaving driveway. Do I go 1200 miles and possibly deal with rain for most of the week or hang around close by?

Not that I'm opposed to rain or riding it, but I didn't want to go FLA for the rain, wanted to go for the sun!

Here's a ride report from my ride if interested...

Ida was a non event, blown out of proportion by the media of course...At least down here the media were hysterical about it, untill they interviewed a local in AL who said there was nothing going on...
I am sure the newscasters were disappointed not being able to report some misery...(insert sarcasm)

Started raining Monday night in west Alabama and stopped about 5 PM last evening.

Perfect sunshine and 70 degrees Fahrenheit at the moment.
