James Spann on Sunday’s severe weather, forecast for start of the work week from Alabama NewsCenter on Vimeo.

ON THE MAPS: A deep upper low is over Arkansas this morning; the heavy rain we had last night is now well to the east, and we see only a few scattered, light rain showers over north Alabama. Today will feature more clouds than sun for the northern half of the state, and we will maintain the chance of a few scattered showers as the upper low approaches. Nothing too heavy or widespread; the high this afternoon will be close to 70 degrees.

MIDWEEK: A few showers will remain possible tomorrow as the upper low passes overhead; the sky will be mostly cloudy with a high again right at 70 degrees. Wednesday looks fairly dry with only isolated showers, along with a mix of sun and clouds. Then, showers become likely Thursday as the next wave approaches — again, nothing really heavy and no risk of severe storms. The high Wednesday and Thursday will be in the 67- to 70-degree range, which is below average for late April in Alabama.

FRIDAY AND THE WEEKEND: A cold front will bring the risk of a few showers Friday afternoon and Friday night, but the weekend looks delightful with sunny, mild days and fair, pleasant nights. The high Friday will be close to 70; we will forecast mid 70s Saturday and upper 70s Sunday.

NEXT WEEK: The week starts off dry and warm; we should see the return of showers and storms over the latter half of the week as moisture returns.

BALDWIN COUNTY TORNADOES: National Weather Service Mobile confirmed two EF-0 tornadoes Sunday in Baldwin County — one at Elberta, and the other at Foley.

The Foley tornado first touched down at the Anchors Aweigh RV Resort, where it overturned five RVs. Three people who were in the RVs were injured. The tornado continued northeast to just east of the intersection of Highway 59 and County Road 20. Minor damage to a convenience store canopy and a Lowe`s were observed. The tornado lifted near the intersection of Pride Drive and Juniper Street. Spotty minor tree damage was noted along the path.

Another waterspout/tornado touched down at Fort Walton Beach, and there was other scattered damage across the Florida Panhandle and far south Alabama.
