...Cooler Air Returns...

Noticeably cooler air returns to Alabama today following the warmest day so
far this year. Tuscaloosa soared to 80 degrees yesterday, while Birmingham's
high was 77, only four shy of the record for March 2. The warmest spots in
Alabama were Brookley Field in Mobile and Evergreen with 81 degrees.
Temperatures today will be at least 15 degrees cooler than yesterday, with
most communities seeing a high near 60 degrees. By tomorrow morning, a light
freeze is likely, and some of the colder valleys might even reach the 20s.

THE WEEKEND: Cool and dry weather will continue through Sunday, with highs
in the 60 to 63 degree range.

A disturbance will bring some clouds to the state early next week on Monday.
A few sprinkles of areas of light rain are possible with that feature, but
rain amounts should be light and spotty. The bottom line is that we don't
expect a big rain event around here for the next seven days.

RAIN UPDATE: Birmingham's rain total for the year is now 14.67", 4.65" above
normal.

DID YOU KNOW? The average date of the last freeze in Birmingham is March 23.
Freezing temperatures, however, have been recorded here as late as April 23.

ROAMING: More summer-like heat in parts of Texas yesterday; Laredo reached
97 degrees and was the hottest place in the nation. Heavy snow fell in parts
of the northeast U.S. yesterday; both Eden and South Wales, New York had 10
inches of snow on the ground last night. Rain continues to fall on much of
northern California; the total in San Francisco yesterday was .48". The long
dry spell continues in Phoenix; they have not had rain for 135 consecutive
days.
