...Cooler and Drier Weather...

After a story Wednesday, cooler and drier air will roll into Alabama today
on brisk winds out of the northwest. With a partly sunny sky, highs today
will be in the low to mid 70s. Temperatures will drop quickly tonight, and
by daybreak tomorrow morning many places will be in the mid to upper 40s
with a clear sky.

We will enjoy a good supply of sunshine tomorrow with comfortable
temperatures.

SATURDAY/SUNDAY: Clouds return on Saturday, and a few showers are possible
by the afternoon hours as another cold front pushes through the state.
Rainfall amounts probably won't be all that heavy, and we don't expect any
severe weather. Then, unusually cool air for May will spill in here by
Sunday.

Temperatures will struggle to reach the low 60s Sunday afternoon, and there
will be cloudy periods and even a chance of some light rain, making for a
rather blustery day.

Temperatures by early Monday morning of next week will drop into the low
40s, and some upper 30s will be possible in the colder spots over North
Alabama.

This is record low territory for this time of the year. Temperatures should
stay below normal for much of next week.

BIG STORMS: Thunderstorms produced strong winds in parts of Alabama
yesterday, knocking down trees and power lines in some areas. A tornado
touched down in southwest Alabama's Clarke County, causing damage to a meat
packing plant in the community of Tallahatta Springs.

ANOTHER SOAKING: Rain totals yesterday included 2.37" at Demopolis, 2.08" at
Tuscaloosa, 1.62" at Riverchase, 1.37" at Gadsden, and 1.31" at Inverness in
Shelby County.
