Severe Weather Alerts Across Alabama

The severe weather is due to a strong storm system moving across the region. In Southeast Alabama, the main concern is the potential for tornadoes and large hail associated with a squall line. The Tennessee Valley will experience strong thunderstorms and damaging winds, followed by a sharp temperature drop and possible flurries. This rapid shift in weather conditions can pose significant challenges for residents. Be sure to monitor your local news for more up-to-date information. Download weather apps from trusted news sources such as WTVY and WAFF. Have a plan in place if a tornado warning is issued for your area. Remember, a tornado WATCH means conditions are favorable for tornadoes to develop, and a tornado WARNING means a tornado has been sighted or indicated by weather radar.

An enhanced risk (level 3 out of 5) means there is a greater likelihood of severe weather conditions, including tornadoes, large hail, and damaging winds.

Protect sensitive plants, wrap exposed pipes, and ensure pets have warm shelter. Take precautions to protect yourself from hypothermia if you must be outside.
