Posted the Tuesday afternoon video update a little early today:
http://beta.abc3340.com/weather/video.hrb
Have to run to Tuscaloosa early this afternoon to see the kids at Woodland Forrest Elementary, and then I have a promo shoot after that, which means no time for this if I wait.
Still working on that March Madness bracket... tough choices.
COMING WEATHER HIGHLIGHTS:
*Cold and wet tonight and tomorrow thanks to a surface low moving from the Louisiana coast to Dothan and on to Savannah. Just think what would happen if we had some Arctic air around here. But, cold and wet is the story with temperatures tomorrow holding in the 40s in most places all day. The colder readings will be on the eastern side of the state. Rainfall amounts of 1/2 to one are likely here, with the heaviest rain near the coast where thunderstorms will be involved.
*The upper trough swings through here on Thursday with a chance of more showers during the day.
*The cold front Friday night/Saturday morning looks drier and drier with each model run. I do still expect showers, but hopefully the drier look will be correct and amounts will be light. Sunday looks nice for the first day of spring with ample sunshine and a good chance of seeing 70 degrees.
*The 12Z GFS continues to advertise a potent severe weather setup across Alabama and the deep south early next week on Monday, March 21. We will have to keep out eyes on this.
Have to hit the road... be back in the office later today as we get set for the ABC 33/40 weathercasts at 5:00 and 6:00.

We thank you so much for the work you and your staff does. You keep us informed, and those people who give you a hard time on the Blog, they just don't understand how important it is to be informed about severe weather. My good friend and her two small boys were killed on April 8th, 1998 during the Oak Grove tornado. I would hate for someone to lose a loved one because they were not warned about such a destructive type storm. Keep up the good work, we love you guys,
Shane & Rebecca Wade - Bagley
