...Mild Weather In The Days Ahead...

Generally speaking, our weather should be somewhat uneventful for the next
two weeks as the primary storm track for now is running from the Great
Plains to the Great Lakes. This will leave Alabama in a pattern with above
normal temperatures and below normal rainfall through mid-April. We see no
big chance of severe storms, flooding, or freezing temperatures for a while.
Not bad at all for March and April.

SHORT TERM: We will rise well into the 70s today and tomorrow with a partly
sunny sky. There is just a slim risk of a shower around here tomorrow
afternoon.

A band of showers and storms will move through sometime between 4:00 p.m.
Friday and 4:00 a.m. Saturday. The chance of severe weather at this point
looks pretty small with the primary dynamics lifting well to the north of
Alabama and weakening wind fields. Rainfall amounts of around one-half inch
are a good bet.

THE WEEKEND: The weather should be dry and mild on both Saturday and Sunday
with partly sunny days with afternoon highs in the mid 70s. There is a
decent chance the dry weather will last into the first part of next week.

YESTERDAY'S RAIN: Rain totals were on the light side across Alabama
yesterday. Measured amounts included .11" at Anniston, .10" at Harpersville,
and .09" at Riverchase.

SKYWATCH: Looks like much of the nation's mid-section will have a
significant risk of severe thunderstorms and a few tornadoes tomorrow; in
the general area from Dallas-Fort Worth to Chicago during the afternoon and
evening hours. A few isolated severe storms are possible later today from
West Texas northward to southern Nebraska.
