The Monday morning map discussion video is on the server:

All is quiet in the weather office this morning; and the week ahead looks uneventful. I think most folks will welcome that after last Friday's severe weather event.
All of the main weather action will shift to the northern half of the nation this week; looks like the westerlies won't allow wave action to impact Alabama to any significant degree. A cold front at mid-week should remain north of the state.
With rising heights, temperatures will continue to warm up, and we should be in the 80s by the end of the week.
WEEKEND PEEK: For now the weather looks great on Saturday and Sunday with ample sunshine and highs in the 80 to 85 degree range.
LONG RANGE: The GFS really isn't suggesting any serious weather problems for the next 15 days. We might have some rain in about a week, but with little upper support severe weather issues don't look likely. Other rain opportunities in the April 18-25 time frame don't look especially robust.

THOUGHTS: I will write a post a little later today looking back at Friday's severe weather event. Some thoughts on the SPC, school closing early, and the general public response.
TODAY: I will be speaking at Mount Olive Elementary School today; I will have the afternoon map discussion posted by 3:30 this afternoon!
