Good morning! It would be difficult to write a better script for the Easter Weekend forecast. There will be high cloudiness at times, but there will be a good bit of sunshine, too. We’ll be in the upper 70’s today. By Easter Sunday highs will reach the low to mid 80’s with a good bit of sun mixed with high clouds. Middle 80’s are a good bet Monday and Tuesday. Showers and storms return Tuesday as a cool front approaches. Parts of north Alabama could see strong to severe storms. Behind the front, expect much cooler temperatures with highs only in the 60’s by mid-week.
.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy early, sunshine later. Little warmer. High near 79. Wind: SW wind at 6 to 12 mph. Partly cloudy, not as cool tonight. Low 53.

Parts of the state could see strong to severe storms. Behind the front, expect a periods of much cooler temperatures with highs only in the 60’s by mid-week.

So far, it appears the better threat for strong to severe storms will be across the northern counties.

BEACH FORECAST: It’s a beautiful Easter Weekend forecast. A little cool today due to an onshore breeze off the cooler Gulf Water. Showers and storms return Tuesday. Moderate rip current risk today and Sunday.
