...Refreshing!...

GOOD MORNING! Greetings on this refreshing Sunday morning! Temperatures
are in the 40s across most of the area.

FOR YOUR SUNDAY: Today will be a picture perfect spring day for Alabama.
Temperatures will warm into the lower 70s on the strength of a warm sun,
despite the presence of a cool north wind. Temperatures tonight should run
about the same as last night. I could imagine a few readings in the 30s at
the normally colder locations. Skies will be clear.

THE WEEK AHEAD: High pressure will be the dominant theme in Alabama's
weather for much of the week ahead. Starting out over the Ohio Valley, the
high will gradually translate northeastward. Ridging down into the
Southeast, this will give us fair, fine weather through Tuesday.
Temperatures will be almost dead on normal. By Wednesday, a weather system
moving through the Ohio Valley might kick off a few showers, but the chances
look very small. By
Thursday, high pressure will set up shop over the Southeast, giving us more
fine weather, and temperatures will warm into the lower 80s for daytime
highs by the end of the week.

EASTER PREVIEW: By the weekend, a powerful low pressure system will be
moving out onto the northern Plains states. At face value, one would think
there would be another massive severe weather outbreak in the Plains and
Midwest for the weekend. But good news: the Gulf of Mexico will be CLOSED
for business. High pressure over the northern Gulf will prevent moisture
from flowing north If this situation materializes, we may escape with very
little in the way of rain or storms for Easter. Hooray!

ON THIS DATE IN 1927: The headlines on the New York Times told an ominous
story of a major flood on the Mississippi River. The Mississippi River and
several other major Midwestern rivers were in flood. And the persistent
rains that had been falling since the previous autumn were still falling.
Work on levees was frantic all along the Mississippi River. In several
locations, saboteurs were killed as they tried to dynamite levees up or down
river from their communities in an attempt to relieve pressure on their own
town's levees. The 1927 Mississippi River Flood would be the most
destructive flood ever in the history of the United States.
