    CALMER DAY: The cold front that brought showers and storms to Alabama yesterday has moved out of the state, and today will be drier and cooler. With a partly to mostly sunny sky, we project a high in the 65-70 degree range this afternoon. The average high for Birmingham on April 7 is 73.

    Tomorrow will be a windy, cooler day with cloudy periods and a chance of widely scattered showers over the northern third of the state. The high will be in the 56-62 degree range, and a brisk west wind of 12-25 mph will make it feel cooler.

    FROST/FREEZE THREAT OVER THE WEEKEND: Temperatures will drop well down in the 30s early Saturday and Sunday morning, with potential for widespread frost over the northern third of the state. Colder pockets will see a freeze as they drop into the 26-32 degree range. Growers will need to monitor temperature forecasts and take needed precautions to protect plants and tender vegetation.

    Otherwise, the weekend will feature a good supply of sunshine as dry air covers the state. The high Saturday will be around 60 degrees, followed by low to mid 70s Sunday as a warming trend begins.

    NEXT WEEK: The main risk of severe storms for the first half of next week will be west of Alabama; SPC has defined a severe weather risk for parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Around here, moisture levels will rise, and a few showers and storms are possible on a daily basis Monday through Wednesday. A cold front will bring a more organized band of rain and storms in here Thursday; too early to know if severe thunderstorms will be an issue. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.

    RAIN UPDATE: Here are rain totals since the first of the year, and the departure from average…

    Huntsville 23.88″ (+7.41″)
    Birmingham 23.86″ (+7.16″)
    Tuscaloosa 20.97″ (+4.81″)
    Muscle Shoals 20.87″ (+5.23″)
    Anniston 19.50″ (+3.26″)
    Montgomery 17.59″ (+1.98″)
    Mobile 13.31″ (-3.41″)
    Dothan 13.29″ (-2.05″)

    ON THIS DATE IN 1980: Severe thunderstorms spawned tornadoes that ripped through central Arkansas. The severe thunderstorms also produce high winds and baseball size hail. Five counties were declared disaster areas by President Carter. A tornado causing F3 damage also affected St. Louis and St. Charles counties in Missouri producing $2.5 million in damage

    BLUSTERY: West winds will increase later today across Alabama, averaging 15-25 mph with higher gusts. A disturbance will bring some clouds into the state, along with a few spotty showers this afternoon mainly along and north of I-20. Temperatures won’t get out of the 50s over North Alabama, and some spots across the Tennessee Valley might even hold in the 40s all day. The average high for Birmingham on April 8 is 73.

    FROST ADVISORY: The NWS has issued a frost advisory for much of North and Central Alabama for early tomorrow morning… basically for areas north of a line from Tuscaloosa to Calera to Roanoke. The sky will become clear tonight, and winds will diminish after midnight. Most places will see a low early tomorrow in the 30-36 degree range… a few colder spots could reach the upper 20s. We note some frost is also likely early Sunday with lows in the 30s again.

    The weekend will feature a good supply of sunshine… the high tomorrow will be close to 60, followed by mid 70s Sunday as a warming trend begins.

    NEXT WEEK: Moisture increases Monday, and a few scattered showers are likely across the state. We will maintain some risk of scattered showers and storms Tuesday and Wednesday, but the next organized rain event comes late Wednesday night into Thursday morning when a cold front pushes into the state. There will be a risk of severe thunderstorms Monday through Wednesday for areas west of Alabama, but it remains to be seen if severe storms will be a threat for Alabama when the front arrives. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.

    ON THIS DATE IN 1998: A violent F5 tornado cut a 31-mile long, 3/4-mile wide swath through nine Birmingham suburbs including Oak Grove, Sylvan Springs, Rock Creek, Pleasant Grove, Concord, Maytown, Pratt City, and Edgewater before lifting in the western limits of the City of Birmingham. The worst of the destruction occurred across the Oak Grove, Rock Creek and McDonald Chapel areas. Thirty-two people were killed in this tornado including three in Oak Grove, eleven near Rock Creek, four in Sylvan Springs, two in Wylam Heights, nine in Edgewater, two in McDonald Chapel and one in West Ensley
