...Cool with Rain At Times Today...

Cool and wet weather headlines our forecast for Alabama today. With clouds
and occasional rain, temperatures should hold in the 60s all day,
considerably cooler than recent days. While a few rumbles of thunder are
possible, we don't expect any severe weather problems with a stable airmass
in place. Rainfall amounts of about one-half inch are likely for most
communities.

The rain should taper off from west to east this afternoon, and the sky will
clear tonight as much drier air slips into the state. That dry will set the
stage for delightful weather tomorrow and Friday. Ample sunshine, highs in
the 70s.

RACE WEEKEND: NASCAR fans are paying close attention to our weekend forecast
since this is race weekend at Talladega. A few showers or storms could show
up Saturday afternoon as moist air returns to Alabama. Showers and storms
are likely on Sunday as a major storm gets it act together over the middle
of the nation. There is chance some storms on Sunday will be strong to
severe. While it won't rain all day, there could be a shower or storm at
almost anytime Sunday.

Highs over the weekend should be mostly in the mid 70s across Alabama.

LONG RANGE: Computer model data suggests a mean upper air trough over the
eastern U.S. setting up next week, perhaps lasting through the first 10 days
of
May. This would suggest temperatures at or below normal levels for Alabama
and the Deep South.

YESTERDAY'S RAIN: The heaviest rain in Alabama yesterday was over the far
southern counties of the state; the total at the Mobile Airport was 0.50:;
nearby Brookley Field measured 0.61" At Evergreen, in Conecuh County between
Mobile and Montgomery, the total was 0.17".
