FOOTBALL WEATHER: Alabama hosts Georgia Saturday night at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa. Needless to say, this is a very important game. And, weather could be a big factor. A tropical system will bring rain to the Deep South over the coming weekend. Here are the key messages *It is simply too early to know if the disturbance will be a full blown tropical storm. It is certainly a possibility. *It is unlikely it reaches hurricane strength. *The main impact will come from rain, but again it is too early to know when and where the heaviest rain will fall. *The map attached to this post is from the American global model (GFS), which shows the tropical low approaching Tuscaloosa from the south Saturday night with potential for heavy rain during the game. But, understand this deterministic output doesn't mean much six days out. Best case for the game is a weak tropical system that passes to the east, keeping West Alabama on the dry side with little rain. Worst case is for a tropical storm to bring widespread rain, heavy at times, and windy conditions. We will have a much higher confidence look by mid-week. Remember, with any tropical system when you are using old information, you are using bad information.
