...A Chilly Weekend Ahead...

A weak surface boundary will bring the risk of a few showers across Alabama
today. The best chance of showers for the northern counties will come during
the morning hours, and amounts should be one-quarter inch or less for most
spots.

The sky will clear late today and tonight, and tomorrow should be a dry day
around here with afternoon temperatures reaching the low 70s.
On Thursday, moist air returns and a few scattered showers could show up. To
the west, a significant severe weather episode will be possible Thursday in
the broad area from Dallas/Fort Worth to Chicago, across the nation's
mid-section. That system will be lifting northeast, and will pass well to
the north of Alabama on Friday. The trailing front should give us a fairly
decent round of showers and storms late Friday and Friday night. At this
point the severe weather threat looks relatively small thanks to the
dynamics passing so far to the north.

THE WEEKEND: The Friday night rain should be gone just in time for the
weekend. For now, the weather looks dry and mild on Saturday and Sunday with
highs well up into the 70s.

Another fast moving system will bring a chance of showers and thunderstorms
to the state around the first part of next week.

DON'T FORGET: We go on Daylight Saving Time this weekend; we will set our
clocks ahead one hour (yep, we lose an hour of sleep!). The sun will set
about 10 minutes after 7:00 in the evening Monday of next week.

TIDBITS: Hottest place in the nation yesterday was Death Valley, CA with 86
degrees. More rain for Honolulu; their total yesterday was 1.16".
Birmingham's rain surplus for the year is still over four inches (4.09").
