...April Heat Wave...

If we reach our forecast high of 86 today, that is exactly 12 degrees above
normal for April 14, and within three degrees of the record high for today
(89 set in 1981). This summer-like weather will continue right on through
the Easter weekend, with a good supply of sunshine each day.

Storm systems will be deflected well to the north and west of Alabama for
the next five days or so, and the dry spell will continue. Today will be the
6th day in a row without a drop of rain for most Alabama communities.

NEXT WEEK: Our weather will stay warm and dry on Monday and Tuesday, but a
cold front is forecast to pass through on Wednesday, bringing a chance of
showers and storms to the state followed by a chance of cooler temperatures.

LONG RANGE: Despite the fact that this is the core of the spring severe
weather season in Alabama, long range model suggests no major severe weather
or heavy rain threat for the rest of the month of April. But, remember May
is a big part of the tornado season, and there is plenty of time for a
pattern change.

THINKING TROPICAL: Hurricane season begins in six weeks, on June 1. The
first tropical cyclone names this year are Alberto, Beryl, Chris, and Debby.
A buoy about 75 miles south of the Alabama coast reported a water
temperature of 73 degrees last night; generally speaking the water has to
warm to near 80 degrees or warmer for tropical storms and hurricanes to
form.

IOWA TWISTERS: Storm spotters reported a large tornado on the ground near
Muscatine, Iowa last night, and some damage was reported to buildings and
other structures. Tornado damage was also reported at the University of Iowa
at Iowa City.
