Calm before the Thunderstorms - ordnance11 - 08-27-2012

The sky is blue and the sun is shining outside in Birmingham, AL. I find it hard to believe that by tomorrow, the forecast is for thunderstoms and possible tornadoes.

Went dark in the morning, 2 hours of rain, and now clear skies with a few clouds around. Good luck to New Orleans though,

Not at all likely, unfortunately. But at least it will be the cure for what ails the Mississippi Valley.  Now if only we can get a few tropical depressions into the gulf...  Not over Georgia.  Preferably over Texas.
ETA: Chicago is about to get slammed pretty hard.
