...Severe Storms Possible Today...

WATCHING THE SKY: The very active spring weather pattern across
Alabama will push another dynamic storm system across Alabama today,
and a number of parameters are coming together for the potential for
severe thunderstorms. The primary window for severe storms will come
from about 11:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m., and all modes of severe weather
will be possible, including large hail, damaging winds, and a few
isolated tornadoes. This will be yet another day when you want to be a
in a position to hear severe weather watches and warnings as they most
likely we will be needed today. Rainfall amounts will be generally one-
half inch for most places. The storms will end tonight as cooler air
blows in on brisk northwest winds.

OUR EASTER WEEKEND: After some lingering clouds tomorrow morning, we
are forecasting a clearing sky tomorrow, with sunshine by afternoon.
Temperatures will be a bit cooler, with a high in the mid to upper
60s. Sunday also looks dry with ample sunshine and a high in the low
to mid 70s.

MORE STORMS: Yet another strong storm system will roll into Alabama
early next week. A few storms could arrive late Sunday night, after
midnight, but it looks like the best chance of rain will come during
the day Monday. Based on projected instability and shear values,
strong to severe storms will be possible on Monday, along with the
risk of some heavy rain at at times. We will be more specific with
this threat with our forecasts over the weekend. Drier air follows the
rain on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.

AT THE BEACH: Just a few scattered storms today and tonight, followed
by dry weather tomorrow and Sunday. Highs along the immediate coast
will be close to 70 degrees. Next week, showers and storms are likely
Monday, with mostly sunny weather on Tuesday and Wednesday. Then, long
range model data hints at a chance of showers and storms at the end of
next week on Thursday and Friday. The sea water temperature at the
Dauphin Island Sea Lab last night was a cool 64 degrees.

LAST NIGHT'S STORMS: There were 12 tornadoes reported late yesterday
and last night across parts of Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Missouri; a
tornado was responsible for damage in the community of Mena, Arkansas,
where homes were damaged, trees blown down, and power outages
occurred. There were over 60 reports of large hail in the same general
area.
