A shout-out to my sports crew. I don't give them near the credit they deserve. I couldn't do what I do without them. Karson Treece, Scott Parr, Scott Matthews, Bradley Potter, Robbie Copenhaver. They are the BEST!!!

With the exception of a few, I think I have gotten the Pisgah/Fyffe broadcast file sent to those that requested. There were a couple who replied on Facebook that they wanted a copy but did not provide me an email address to send to. If you are of those, please send me an email or text with your email address and I will get the file sent your way.

Congratulations to Scottsboro head football coach Tyler Vann and the Wildcats on their win tonight over North Jackson. Coach Vann is the first first-year head coach at Scottsboro to win his first two games since Lyle Darnell in 1980.

I have gotten the Pisgah/Fyffe game broadcast edited and posted in the podcast files of the WWIC Radio online audio platforms. It is a large file (2.5 hours) and is posted in two segments. For those that still want to get the complete downloadable file, send me your name and email to [email protected] or text to 256-599-2433 and I will work on getting it sent. Again, it is a large file and will be sent via a file transfer program that I use. It is an easy download to your device.

I’ve been home for a while but unable to go to sleep. What a night. I usually have a problem sleeping after a game anyway, but the alarm will go off at 4:00 regardless lol. I just want to say thank you for all the kind comments via calls, texts, Facebook (personal page and radio station page). Perhaps the greatest high school game I have ever broadcast in my nearly 40 years of doing this. I did record the game and will get it edited for distribution for anyone that wants an audio file via email. Again, thank you to all who listened - and yes, our online stream overloaded. And thank you to Jamie Darwin and Luke Pruitt for allowing us to be there.

I continue to get messages wanting to know how to listen to our coverage last night of the Scottsboro municipal election. Many people attended the Jackson County Bama Club event last night and missed the radio coverage. I have the audio file available in the podcast files of the WWIC Radio online audio platforms. It begins at the time that we got the results and continues through all the candidate interviews. You can listen from the website player or the WWIC Radio app. From the website player, click the icon for podcasts and it will be the first file available. It runs for 41 minutes.

As we approach the end of August 2024, I have been curious as to the lack of rain that we have received this month. So, I have been going through precipitation records for Scottsboro for the month of August. To date, we have received 1.68 inches of rain at the WWIC Radio studio where we keep records for the National Weather Service in Huntsville. If we get no more precipitation for the month, this will be the 17th driest August in Scottsboro weather history (per NWS archives). These records go back to 1891. The driest August in Scottsboro history was 1963 when only 0.05 inches of precipitation was recorded. That 0.05 inches fell on August 13. Prior to that, it last rained on July 29th (0.91 inches), a period of 14 days. After the 0.05 inches on August 13th, it did not rain again until September 4th, a period of 22 days. There have been eight August's in Scottsboro weather history in which documented rainfall was under one inch. 1963 (0.05), 1953 (0.10), 1896 (0.40), 2007 (0.44), 1954 (0.51), 1999 (0.74), 1918 (0.90) and 1929 (0.90). The greatest monthly precipitation for the month of August was 9.65 inches in 1942. A little useless information (lol) for this Monday, August 26, 2024. I tried to tag the Jackson County Historical Association but was unable to do so for some reason. I will post this on their page.

Tomorrow, August 27th is election day in Scottsboro. There are three races on the ballot - Mayor, Scottsboro City Council and Scottsboro Board of Education.
