...Record Warmth...

GOOD MORNING: Does the calendar say April? It feels more like late May or
June. Highs today across the area will be in the 80s, with many locations
in the upper 80s.

RECORD TERRITORY: We probably won't see any record highs today, but we will
be close. The record high for today in Birmingham is 88, so we will fall a
couple of degrees short with average highs around 86. Sunday will feature
highs about the same as today, so the record of 89 for the date will
probably not be in jeopardy. Now Monday and Tuesday will be different
stories. The record high for Monday and Tuesday is 90 degrees. It looks
like we could flirt with 90 both days.

NEXT RAIN CHANCE? Not today. Probably not tomorrow. Most likely not
Monday as a strong cap keeps convection at a minimum. There might be a
little activity on Tuesday, but it doesn't look significant. A cold front
will approach from the northwest on Wednesday.

RETURN OF A STORMY PATTERN? The approaching front will combine with a warm
and unstable airmass to produce a good chance of showers and storms on
Wednesday. We could deal with severe weather with this system. It will
likely be the beginning of a wetter and cooler period as the boundary stalls
out in our area.

SEVERE WEATHER TODAY: Another outbreak of severe weather is expected today
across the Central Plains and Upper Mississippi Valley. The greatest threat
for severe weather today is over eastern Nebraska, southwestern Iowa and
northwestern Missouri There could be tornadoes across this area,
especially early this evening.

ON THIS DATE IN 1927: Good Friday 1927 was marked by incredible rainfall
all along the Mississippi River. Greenville, MS, which would be the scene
of incredible flooding a few days later, receives 8.22 inches of rain in
just 24 hours. Worried civic leaders in Greenville meet to determine
whether the levee s around the town will hold. The rainstorm covered a huge
area. Downriver, New Orleans sets their record for rainfall in 24 hours
with 14.01 inches as well as the record for the state of Louisiana.
