Good Monday morning — and for once, there’s no school closings or delays to deal with…

Weather: Soggy. The National Weather Service forecasts rain for every day of this week, but at least temperatures will be springlike at last. Today’s we’ll see showers, mainly after lunchtime, with a high near 60, More rain tonight with lows in the middle 50s. More shower and even some thunderstorms for Tuesday, with highs in the lower 70s and lows near 60.

Remembering Bloody Sunday. More than 80,000 people, including President Barack Obama and former president George W. Bush, packed into the city of Selma over the weekend to mark the 50th anniversary of when civil rights marchers were battered and beaten as they attempted to cross the Edmund Pettus Bridge and march to Montgomery. The crowd was more than a hundred times the size of that which tried to cross the bridge in 1965, only to be turned back by state troopers.

Sports: First, for the last time. Gardendale won yet another Jefferson County Schools Baseball Championship on Friday night, defeating Pleasant Grove 3-2 in the finals. Assuming everything in Gardendale’s separation from the county school system stays on schedule, it will also be the last time the Rockets win the title – they won’t be eligible next year… Softball: Despite having only one practice and one warm-up game beforehand because of winter weather, Hayden made a deep run into the Spain Park Invitational tournament on Saturday. The Wildcats were finally stopped by a 7-0 loss to Hewitt-Trussville (at the hands of former Mortimer Jordan pitcher Bailey Murphy) in the semifinals, but not before turning away Southside-Gadsden in a 1-0 quarterfinal victory. They also knocked off the host team and Bob Jones in bracket play, and Mountain Brook in pool play. Hayden is scheduled to play at Good Hope this afternoon, if the rain holds off.
