The first baby of 2017 is Tristan Jacboy Corbin. “For a minute I was shocked when they told me he was the first of year,” Tristan’s mother Jennifer Corbin said. “It is a blessing though.” As they do every year, the New Years babies and their mothers were given gift baskets. “The baskets include items from area businesses to help celebrate the occasion,” Russell Medical’s Jessica Sanford said. “The hospital and gift store also included a few items.” The baskets included gifts from Carlisle’s, Grace’s Flowers, Jackson’s Drugstore, Lynn’s Hallmark, The Medicine Shoppe,

Area sees little damage from storms, now awaits word on snow By MITCH SNEED Editor

Tallapoosa County survived Monday’s storms and deluge of rain relatively well, according to local officials. Now the area turns its attention to the possibility of snow later this week. Tallapoosa County Emergency Management Agency Director Jason Moran said a briefing with National Weather Service and State EMA officials is planned for this morning at 11 a.m. to discuss the latest forecast. “We are hearing the same thing that everyone else is, but it’s too far out to tell for sure on this weekend,” Moran said Tuesday. “We will get further information Wednesday and I hope to know more then.” Birmingham’s Jim Spann of ABC 33/40 confirmed that outlook. “Forecast model soundings show the atmosphere certainly will be cold enough for snow over the northern third of the state, with rain for the See WEATHER • Page 11

DEAR ABBY: I am a straight man who met and fell in love with a transgender girl I’ll call Eve. We dated for almost three years, and they were the happiest of my life. In all that time, we never once had an argument. She said I had given her the strength to come out to her family and begin her transition. I was planning to ask her to marry me. Without any indication that anything was wrong, she dumped me one day and weeks later began dating her friend, another trans girl. I wanted to walk away and take time to heal, but Eve maintained that I was important to her and we could remain friends. For the next few months we tried, but her new girlfriend treated me like I was a threat. While I was emotionally hurting, she seemed to take intense pleasure in showing me how happy they were together. It eventually lead to friction, and now my ex thinks I caused it because I was jealous, so she cut off all contact with me. I stood by her when she absolutely needed my support,

to move forward if you keep in mind that all women are not the same, that building trust takes time, and give yourself time to heal before trying to replace Eve. DEAR ABBY Advice

but when the time came to give a little back, I was abandoned. I’m worried I will never trust anyone again, and I don’t know how to get “myself” back. Can you help? -- ABANDONED IN WEST VIRGINIA DEAR ABANDONED: It might help if you consider that there are more than physical changes when making the kind of transition Eve was undergoing, and she may have felt that her trans friend was better able to relate to what she was experiencing than you were. It was cowardly of her to just dump you rather than tell you she had doubts about your relationship, and it was selfish of her to pressure you to hang around as “just a friend” afterward. It also wasn’t realistic. What you are feeling is normal. However, it might help you

DEAR ABBY: I am a 23-yearold woman who recently got out of a six-year abusive relationship. While I was in the relationship, no one knew what was going on. When I finally left him, I started dating a man of a different race. People are now saying I moved too fast because we got together a month after I moved out. But we had been close friends for more than a year before things started to kick off. The issue is, my family disapproves of our relationship because of his race and because they believe he didn’t give me enough time to figure out what I wanted. I feel like I already knew what I wanted. I had been emotionally done with my first relationship for a good six months. My family refuses to meet him, nor do they want to hear anything about our relationship. My family and I had always been close -- until now.

I am happy with my new boyfriend (even my grandma sees a difference). I just wish I knew how to get my family to understand and agree to meet him. What can I do? -- READY FOR THIS IN OHIO DEAR READY: If you are open to a suggestion, because you were in an abusive relationship for so long, talk with a licensed psychotherapist about it. You were unhappy for a long time, and it’s possible that the difference your grandmother is seeing is partly fueled by adrenaline. You are an adult and you deserve to be happy. If this man makes you feel that way, then more power to him. Take things slowly, enjoy the relationship, and perhaps with time your family will come around.

2017 will be a turnover year in state politics

T

his past year in Alabama politics was surprisingly more interesting than was expected. The judicial inquiry commission removed Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore from the bench for telling the probate judges in the state not to perform marriage ceremonies for gay people. He said marriage should be between a man and a woman, as do most people in Alabama. This removal by this vague panel of former lawyers and judges has caused legislators to call for an investigation of who this panel is and how they have this much power. More importantly, Judge Moore’s views and martyrdom has catapulted him into an early frontrunner position for the governorship of Alabama in next year’s upcoming election. He is prohibited from running for the Court again because he is 72 and Alabama law does not allow someone to run for judgeships after age 70. Therefore, it’s expected that he was going to run for governor and his expulsion has propelled his polling numbers to strategic levels. Our good ole Gov. Robert Bentley’s saga played out over the year. It is titillating and fun to follow. However, it has pretty much rendered him irrelevant as governor.

Donald J. Trump’s STEVE FLOWERS Political columnist

victory for the presidency is of course the biggest political story of 2016. It overshadows our shenanigans in Alabama. Trump is very popular in Alabama. His victories in our GOP primary and in the November general election were record-setting vote tallies for the Heart of Dixie. As we enter 2017, the beginning of the Trump presidency will be the news. His administration will and has already affected Alabama politics significantly. His attorney general will be our own Sen. Jeff Sessions. Our senior Sen. Richard Shelby has had one seat for 30 years and Sessions has been in the other seat for 20 years. Therefore, this open seat is a rarity and will be coveted. By law, the governor appoints the holder of the vacant seat, which will be for an interim time. The election for the seat will probably occur at the same time as the governor’s race, which will be 17 months from now in the GOP primary in June of 2018. The most qualified person to take the seat would be someone from our state congressional delegation, especial-

ly someone who has served in Congress from Alabama for a decade or more. The two who fit that bill and who are the most imminently qualified are Congressman Robert Aderholt and former Congressman Jo Bonner. Aderholt, who hails from Haleyville, has represented the 4th Congressional District for 20 years. That district runs from the Mississippi line to the Georgia line across north central Alabama and includes Jasper, Cullman, Gadsden and Tuscaloosa. Aderholt got to Washington at the amazingly young age of 31. Therefore, he is only 51 years old and is our most senior and thus most powerful congressman. He is a ranking member of the powerful Appropriations Committee and is in line to be chairman soon. He would be risking a lot and probably has the same power as a freshman U.S. Senator. He is on course to follow in the footsteps of his predecessor, Tom Bevill, who was referred to as Alabama’s third senator. Jo Bonner represented Baldwin and Mobile in the 1st District for over a decade. He left a couple of years ago to accept an economic development position at the University of Alabama. He is very well-liked and respected in Washington and

was positioned for a leadership post in the GOP Congress. His erudite and sincere demeanor would make him an effective senator immediately. He also served in the House with a third of the Senators. The most likely to win the seat in the 2018 Election is Attorney General Luther Strange. He has run statewide three times successfully and has over a $3 million head start name identification wise. None of these three men have or will seek Bentley’s appointment. They all realize how unpopular Bentley is and know the history of appointments in Alabama politics. Bentley could redeem some respect and relevance if he went hat in hand to President Donald Trump and offered Trump his appointment. In that case, the governor’s choice would be Trump’s choice. The best choice to bridge the gap may be Perry Hooper Jr., who stumped for Trump in Alabama. See you next week. Steve Flowers is Alabama’s leading political columnist. His weekly column appears in over 60 Alabama newspapers. He served 16 years in the state legislature. Steve may be reached at www. steveflowers.us.

Do your part to keep the area clean

T

allapoosa County is one of the most beautiful counties in the state. Last year there was even a study done that proclaimed it so. With that in mind, we encourage local folks to make an effort to get involved in two upcoming initiatives that are designed to keep the area beautiful. The January PATH Trash Walk is set for this Saturday, Jan. 7 at Strand Park starting at 8:30 a.m. President of the Lake Martin Resource Association John Thompson and the folks at Prosperity Again Through Health do a great job of organizing volunteers and scheduling events and making sure that every area gets some attention. In December, only 13 volunteers participated, but this weekend they are hoping for a large turnout. Volunteers are asked to meet at the park across from the Alexander City Chamber of Commerce, and from there would fan across the city and pick up litter wherever they find it. Get exercise and do a good deed – what could be better? If you can’t make that one, then there is another program that may help you clean up around your own place. The Tallapoosa County Commissioners have teamed up with the Middle Tallapoosa Clean Water Partnership to place a dumping site in each of its five districts Jan. 9-10. The idea is to rid the county of illegal dumpsites, which are a big problem, particularly at this time of the year. This is the second time the commissioners have sponsored the program. In April more than 40 tons worth of refuse were collected. The public drop off will be at these locations: • District One, Alex City Courthouse Annex 395 Lee St. • District Two, Double Bridges Highway 63 • District Three, Old Daviston School Highway 22E • District Four, Camp Hill Town Hall 309 Holley Ave. • District Five, Union Community Center 4191 Highway 50 We appreciate the organizers and sponsors of these events and we encourage residents to volunteer to get involved in the cleanup effort.

New Year’s resolutions have a tragic history

I

f your New Year’s resolutions crash and burn, don’t despair. According to an article in “Forbes” magazine, only eight percent of people achieve their New Year’s goals of losing weight, de-cluttering the house, learning a new language or whatever. Coincidentally, Green Party candidate Jill Stein has demanded a recount of the survey. (“Did you in fact forget all your friends’ birthdays last year, or were you instead terrified that Donald Trump would track them down and deport them all back to Switzerland?”) Pledges come to naught because of factors such as inadequate planning, unreasonable goals, bad influences, “you meddling kids,” etc. But I think the biggest factor is that notable figures down through history have failed spectacularly and left our confidence shaken, prompting half-hearted vows. What about Humpty Dumpty? After his pledge of “This year, I’m being less introverted and coming out of my shell,” the irony has echoed down through the ages. Some of the cases have been just sad, like Alexander Graham Bell’s resolution of “This is 1876 and I intend to do something to stop that confounded ringing in my ears!” And let’s not forget explorer Marco Polo’s

DANNY TYREE Columnist

optimistic plan, “Maybe this is the year I’ll find a public swimming pool where no one knows my name!” Oh, and let’s not overlook the king of Troy, who declared, “No, I’ve decided to swear off re-gifting.” Some resolutions are just ahead of their time, like Confucius announcing, “Forget fortune cookies! I’m getting my sayings distributed in piñatas!” Some long-ago resolutions remind us of modern anxieties, such as Thomas Jefferson freaking out and saying, “I’m not making any more Louisiana purchases until someone can protect me from identity theft.” Sometimes human nature gets in the way of resolutions. Take for instance Russian tsar Peter the Great. (“I really want to be more humble this year, but I already have those rubles invested in business cards…”) Sometimes one door closes but another opens. Take Charles Dickens, who boasted, “This is the year I write a classic that forever links my name with the holiday of …ARBOR DAY.” The first drafts of some resolutions were a little rough around the edges because the speakers got

carried away. Yes, you nailed it. I’m talking about Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine. After watching one mixed martial arts contest too many, he threatened, “First, we gonna do some HARM. Bring it on.”) Thank goodness some of the resolutions didn’t work out, or we would be living in quite a different world. Teddy Roosevelt musing, “I’ve found a megaphone. Now I just need a teeny, tiny stick. Look out, world”? I don’t think so. We really dodged a bullet with Winston Churchill. In the 1930s he toyed with a commitment to stop talking about icky things in mixed company. (“Dash it all, who needs to hear about things like blood, toil, tears and sweat?”) We’d all be poorer if Sigmund Freud had acted on his first impulses. (“There! I’ve gotten all the loose change out of the couch. Time to call the garbage collector. What other use could I have for a couch?”) Make resolutions, don’t make resolutions. It’s a free country. I’m just going to live vicariously through the fact that Frank Sinatra eventually decided not to croon, “Let the record show, I took the blows and did it the focus group’s way…”

Today’s

Letter to the Editor Reader: When will something be done about speeding? Dear Editor, My Momma’s cat died New Year’s Eve. Just as I was celebrating Alabama’s win over Washington, my phone rang. I thought she was calling to talk about the game. I jumped up to answer the phone, almost tripped over my dog and stubbed my toe on a dresser. I was hollering when I answered. Momma was crying. “I think Isabella is dead,” she said. I wasn’t planning to go out on New Year’s Eve. It just isn’t my thing anymore, and it’s dangerous on a rainy night to be out when so many people are drinking, but I put on some boots and a coat and went to help my grieving mother. I left Momma’s a few minutes before 9 p.m. and stopped at the Dollar General at Mill Square. I pulled out of the parking lot onto Highway 22 but was stopped by a red light. It was cold, dark and raining. My eyes were burning – and likely bloodshot – from crying, and my head was hanging a little low. I was thinking about Isabella and how Momma cried and then lovingly brushed her for about an hour. It was the longest she’d ever been able to brush her because Isabella didn’t like it very much. I also thought that if I were pulled over by the police, they’d see my red eyes and think I’d been drinking. If I were the type to step on the accelerator as soon as my light turns green, I would be dead right now. I didn’t see the truck because of the dark, because of the rain, because my eyes were barely squinting through the pain, but I am not the type to hit the accelerator as soon as the light is green, so I am here to write this story. I always wait a few seconds, look left, look right, look left again, especially when I’m turning onto Highway 280. I have learned from experience to never pull onto Highway 280 without looking, no matter what time of day or night. The driver of an 18-wheeler flew over the small hill from the east and went through the light that

had already turned red on his side. I didn’t see it until it was in the middle of the intersection. My response time was especially slow tonight, because I had been thinking about Momma and Isabella, and my eyes were burning, and I was tired, and it was raining. If I were one of those who sits with one foot on the accelerator, anxiously waiting for the green light, I would be dead right now. The truck startled me as it hurtled through the intersection without making an attempt to stop. It would have slammed into the driver’s side of my small Ford Ranger. After I caught my breath, I turned left onto 280, and just as I topped the hill, I saw two police vehicles with blue lights on, but they weren’t chasing down the errant truck. They had a car pulled over, perhaps giving the driver a ticket. Neither had attempted to go after the truck driver who so clearly was driving too fast, not paying attention and endangering the lives of everyone on the road. It was only three weeks ago that Brandy Hardman was killed when the driver of an 18-wheeler ran the light in front of Walmart, just one traffic light up from where I could have been killed tonight. What is it going to take to stop these large trucks from flying through our city and running through red lights? It is not an uncommon problem. I see it happen almost daily. Are the daily “almost was,” “could have been,” and “near misses” not enough to get our city officials to do anything? Will it take more victims like Hardman? How many? Do we have a number? Three? Five? A dozen? Give us a number so we’ll know when the problem will be addressed. Rebecca Spivey Alexander City

Russell Medical Registered Nurse Danielle Carter was helping the Corbins on the maternity floor. “He is the cutest baby,” Carter said of Tristan after giving him back to his mother Tuesday. “He didn’t want to let go. He wanted me to hold him.” Tristan was born Jan. 2 at 8:36 a.m. weighing in at six pounds and five ounces measuring 18 and a half inches in length. Dr. Davis Sullivan with The Women’s Pavilion delivered Tristan. Tristan already has two brothers and two sisters. His Godmother is Felcia McLean. Tristan was joined by Avah Elizabeth Lamberth as the second baby of the New Year in the Russell Medical Nursery. “It’s exciting to be born this close to the holiday,” Avah’s mother Selena Holley said. Holley is already an aunt. Little Avah’s father is Andrew Lamberth. Avah was born Jan. 2 at 1:44 p.m. weighing in at six pounds and 10 ounces measuring 18 and a half inches. Dr. Brian Dix of The Women’s Pavilion delivered Avah. Holley did see one problem with having a child so close to the holidays. “It’s a lot of gift buying with everything so close together,” Holley said. “But it’s still a blessing.”

January is National Hot Tea month, brew a pot and enjoy

appy New Year to everyone. I predict the re-building of America to greatness will begin before next month. This year has passed so quickly. But I know when I was a youngster, the exciting holiday took so long to arrive. With my brother Maurice, we enjoyed every minute of it. It was a Christmas style celebration at our home from mid-December until Twelfth Night, when the decorations came down and were put away for another year. Happy Birthday to Wayne Woodfin, Jan. 4, and my special friend Amanda Green, Jan. 6, both of Alex City. For Equality’s Richard Penton, Happy Birthday on Jan. 10.

We were quite disappointed at the lack of Biblical Christmas themes in films, that we normally watch several of, but they were just not showing this year. We did watch some interesting historical finds on the History channel where we learn something new about days gone by. By the same token, the U.S. doesn’t seem to be supporting Israel, the best ally we have in the middle east. Rather the United States is still giving billions to Palestine and others while Medicare and Social Security money runs short and welfare does not. Something is radically wrong with that picture. We all paid into Social Security and Medicare for years. It should be full, so maybe not enough people are

working while the takers are increasing. My extra coverage health insurance carrier says fees are going up because Medicare fees that it pays will increase. It is just awful to cause the elderly on fixed pay, to give more back to the government for Medicare when every other living expense has increased. When does it stop? That’s why we must stop fueling terrorists acts of Palestine and take care of our own, here. We got our rains, didn’t we? Good to finally see, but difficult on our dogs.

They love the outside on sunny days, but don’t care for the rain. Let’s hope that we don’t get strong winds after so much rain has soaked the grounds. This hopefully will keep the trees and shrubs alive. They were gasping for a drink after the dry dust blowing around when summer ended. I am already wishing for springtime but January is National Hot Tea month in the United States and it certainly does warm a soul. Time to get those teapots out, make the tea, steeping for five minutes and enjoy. I am in the process of making a few knitted tea cozies commonly used in English households to help keep the tea piping hot inside. Cozies work well and are attractive

additions for plain teapots. In British Columbia, Canada, they will celebrate the 11th annual Victoria Tea Festival this month. Folks that live in the coldness of Canada have learned how to stay warm, just as those in our northern states. It’s good to be living in the South where the sun is always just around the corner. These rainy, gloomy, depressing, dark days, when we need inside lights on during the day to see well you do at “Summerdown Manor,” or you may fall over a resting dog. Reminds me of rainy day visits to my Nanny’s house, when she lived in Slough, Buckinghamshire, built around 1300. My grandparents Cottage had very steep stairs, small

Sugar Bowl sums up Auburn season

W

hat’s the difference between a 9-4 record and an 8-5 record? Of course, the simple and logical answer is only one game. However, for the Auburn Tigers that one game defines an entire season and has multiple layers of far-reaching implications. 2016 was a roller coaster year for the Tigers with incredibly impressive highs like the evisceration of Arkansas 56-3 and with devastating lows like the offense being completely inept against Georgia. This season saw the AU defense make incredible strides in the right direction, but also witnessed some of the most bizarre and incompetent game plans any coaching staff has ever put together. At times, it definitely seemed like Gus Malzahn had things turning in the right direction, but injuries played an enormous role in Auburn’s effectiveness down the stretch of the regular-season. I suppose it’s only fitting that the Sugar Bowl against Oklahoma encapsulated the Tiger’s turbulent season to perfection. Even though it’s only one game, a 9-4 record would have meant that Auburn played extremely well on national television and defeated a very good top-10 team. A game of that nature can affect recruiting and create serious momentum heading into 2017. Instead, the reality of an 8-5 record is a 35-19 blowout in which the Tigers appeared outclassed by a superior team. That’s the lasting image every coach, player, fan and future prospect will now take into 2017. During a midseason six-game winning streak Auburn’s offense approached a prolific level, but injuries to Sean White and Kamryn Pettway stymied the progress. It was easy to blame the Georgia and (to some degree) Alabama losses on those injuries. The Tigers were reportedly close to 100 percent healthy coming into the Sugar Bowl. For a moment, I truly believed Auburn was back in midseason form when they took the opening drive and marched down field for a touchdown. For a moment, I thought the program really had turned in the right direction and it was all about the injuries. Then the moment passed and the Sooners outscored the Tigers 35-6 over the next three quarters. The lack of creativity, utter stubbornness and generally poor coaching came flowing back like a tidal wave of incompetence. White was injured yet again and the coaching staff’s total lack of confidence in John Franklin was also on full display… yet again. It was a very disappointing performance by Auburn, but it really was a microcosm of the program in 2016. Obviously, it’s not all doom and gloom. While serious questions linger about the offensive coaching staff, the 2017 roster will be full of major talent. The defense played its worst game, by far, against Oklahoma, but that doesn’t overshadow a season of remarkable progress. Kevin Steele will lose some great players, but they could actually be better overall next season. The offensive line should be in excellent shape and Kamryn Pettway will also return next year. Auburn actually has exceptional wide receiver talent if it will actually use them. That brings us to the quarterback position. Highly touted Baylor transfer Jarrett Stidham is on campus and ready to compete. He’s the odds-on favorite to win the starting job. How good will he be? I don’t know, but the offensive coaching staff better do some serious soul-searching this off-season or it won’t matter. Andy Graham writes a regular sports column for Tallapoosa Publishers.

Tigers defeat Elmore County Dadeville varsity girls fall to Lady Panthers CATHY HIGGINS Sports Editor

In Dadeville’s first home game of 2017, the Tigers defeated region foe Elmore County 44-40 Tuesday. The contest opened as anyone’s game as the first quarter ended tied at 11. However, the Panthers took control of the game at the half by adding 13 more points in the second quarter while Dadeville added another 11. But the second half opened as the night had, with a tie of 31 at the third quarter with the Panters adding seven more points while the Tigers put up nine more. It was the final quarter that made all the difference for the Tigers as they added 13 more points while Elmore County only added nine. Leading the Tigers in the win was Dadeville junior guard Jalen Sullivan with 14 points. He had help from freshman guard Jamarion Wilkerson with 12 points and junior small forward Donquavious Tucker with 11. Dadeville varsity boys basketball head coach Rodney Taylor was pleased with his Tigers’ performance after meeting the Panthers before the Christmas break. “We lost 55-50 over there,” he said. “We put in a game plan to try to hold their best player down, No. 2 (Tyric Belyeu) and I thought for the most part we executed well.” Following Tuesday’s win Dadeville varsity boys’ season record jumps to 4-5 overall and 4-1 in the region. According to Taylor, the win was vital for the Tigers. “It’s a huge win,” he said. “Had we lost this we’d gone down to two games to them and we might not have had a chance to host the area playoffs. But right now we’re back. We’re tied for first, which is where we want to be.” Things didn’t work out quite as well for the Lady Tigers, who lost to Elmore County 59-44 Tuesday. The Lady Panthers controlled the game from the start by placing 13 points in the first quarter while Dadeville put up six. Dadeville narrowed the gap by the half by adding 11 more points in the second quarter. But Elmore County added 14 more. The second half opened with the Lady Panthers adding 17 more points while Dadeville added another 11. In the final quarter both

teams added 15 more points. But with Elmore County’s steady lead, the Lady Tigers ended the night with an L. Dadeville varsity girls basketball head coach Pam Holloway tipped her hat to the Lady Panthers for their performance Tuesday. “I always commend Elmore County for playing hard and giving us a lot of good competition,” she said.

As for the Lady Tigers, Holloway believes improvements are still under way. “I saw a lot of improvements that we need but we have a lot of adjustments to make,” the coach said. “It would be good for our team, playing different people, even at this point in the season we’re still trying to find some chemistry.” Following Tuesday’s loss, the Lady Tigers season

record falls to 1-4 overall and 1-2 in the region. Despite the loss, Lady Tigers scoring was led by Dadeville junior guard Quanesha Presley, who had 16 points. She had help from sophomore center Jasmine Hill with 10 points. Dadeville next heads to Tallassee Thursday. Varsity girls tipoff at 5:30 p.m. while varsity boys play at 7 p.m.

You might even be sorry that you asked for opinions. Calls, emails and subsequent conversations could overwhelm you. Tonight: Hang out. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You’ll actively pursue a goal. You know where you are going, but others could be reactive. You also aren’t likely to be in the mood to discuss your ideas or plans. A loved one who is observing you might not be sure how to react. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Your playful nature emerges when dealing with a child. You might feel as if you are revived and feeling better than you have in quite a while. You seem to be especially verbal. Understand that confusion on the homefront is likely. Tonight: Get into the moment. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Make calls early in the day. You could wonder what is too much and what is too little to give in a key relationship. Discussions might be emotional. If you feel guilty, you’ll know that you need to give more. If you feel resentful, give less. Tonight: Happily head home. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might be unusually busy and determined to get past a problem. You understand much more than you seem to let on. Sometimes you frustrate others, as you seem impervious to their feedback. Know what you want and why, but remain sensitive. Tonight: Hang out late. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A boss or higher-up could make a demand that you will need to respond to. Confusion is likely, as you might not be hearing the whole story. Try not to make assumptions. Ask questions, and do more research. Tonight: Treat a loved one to a budget-friendly dinner.

southern counties,” Spann wrote for the Alabama Power’s Alabama News Network. “A mix of rain, sleet and snow is possible in the middle of the state. “Understand we are dealing with an event several days away, and it is simply too early to draw conclusions about accumulation potential and the placement of snow. Just be aware that some accumulating snow is possible for the northern half of Alabama Friday, Friday night and early Saturday, and there could be some travel impact.” Temperatures will start to fall today, Spann said. “We are looking at 40s today with a chilly north wind, and, like today, the sky will feature more clouds than sun,” Spann said. “Thursday will be cool and dry with a partly sunny sky; the high Thursday afternoon will be in the low 50s. “The next phase of the big chill arrives at the end of the week; most North/Central Alabama communities will hold in the 30s all day with a cloudy sky. And, with an approaching upper trough and developing low in the northern Gulf, the stage is set for some winter weather

issues for the Deep South.” After the wet start, officials are glad they didn’t experience the violent weather that caused damage in other parts of the state. Moran said that most of the county averaged about 4.25 inches of rain Monday alone. Alexander City Public Works Department measured a little more than 5 inches from Friday through Tuesday at 7 a.m. There were a few calls where police guarded standing water on the roads and some culverts that backed up for periods, but no serious damage was reported in Alexander City. Moran said they had a few limbs down and scattered street flooding, but “nothing major.” It was about the same in Alexander City. “We had a few places where it backed up at times, but for the most part it came at a pace where drains were able to handle it,” Alexander City Engineer and Public Works Director Gerard Brewer. “Now we are just waiting to see what is coming this weekend. We will be ready whatever it brings.”

gallon last week meaning American motorists are paying $2.34 per gallon on average. Including the last week’s change in gas prices in Alabama, prices as of Monday were 37.6 cents per gallon higher than the same day one year ago and are 15.1 cents per gallon higher than a month ago. The national average has increased during the last month and stands 35.4 cents per gallon higher than this day one year ago. According to GasBuddy historical data, gasoline prices on Jan. 3 in Alabama have ranged widely over the last five years: • $1.75/g in 2016 • $2.08/g in 2015 • $3.12/g in 2014 • $3.17/g in 2013 • $3.13/g in 2012 “In 2016, motorists spent an average $2.13 per gallon on gasoline, the cheapest yearly average since 2004, and 28 cents lower than 2015, but if motorists made a resolution to pay less in 2017, they either broke it already or aren’t planning on driving for a while,” said Patrick DeHaan, senior petroleum analyst for GasBuddy. “While nearly 100,000 gas stations in the country were selling for $1.99 per gallon a year ago, fewer than 3,000 are today. Though we may see rising gas prices take a brief break in early February, we’re unlikely to come anywhere close to last year’s low levels.

“Overall, the national average price of gas stands 35 cents higher than where it was a year ago on this day and the gap is likely to continue

widening. For the upcoming year, it’s not a rosy picture at the pump: GasBuddy’s 2017 Fuel Outlook, being released tomorrow, will detail

when motorists will be seeing the highest prices of the year and how many more billions we’ll spend at the pump in the year ahead.”
