The Friday afternoon map discussion video is on the server:

We checked on the fire you are seeing on the Cheaha SKYCAM, and it is a controlled burn. About 1,000 acres are involved. Very nice image from our camera at the Cheaha State Park restaurant:

By the way, our new SKYCAM cameras in Gadsden, Demopolis, Cullman, Clanton, and Tuscaloosa should be online within the next one to three weeks. Gulf Shores and Jasper should be ready by mid-May. All of the weather conditions and still images from the cameras will be available on the web... just like the existing sites. We hope to add even more late this year.
EASTER, OR THE FOURTH OF JULY? Highs will stay in the 84 to 87 degree range over the weekend with hazy sunshine. These temperatures are over 10 degrees above normal for this time of the year.
The weather will remain dry and very warm into the first two days of next week.
STORMY WEDNESDAY? A cold front will push through here Wednesday of next week (April 19); that could bring the risk of strong to severe storms to Alabama. Not a classic severe weather setup, but there will be aa decent degree of instability and the wind fields will be fairly strong.
That front should stall out somewhere around here; meaning showers are a good bet on Thursday and Friday of next week as well (April 20-21). Temperatures will be cooler; highs should drop into the low to mid 70s with clouds and occasional showers.
I hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend... spend some quality time with your family! Brian Peters will have the video discussions over the weekend... my next one will be here bright and early Monday morning at 7:00 a.m.!
