..Severe Weather Threat Today & Tonight, through early Monday…  Our severe weather scenario  has just gotten a little more complicated.  Two rounds of severe weather may affect the state, with the first round possibly beginning in the west counties early this afternoon.  A second round begins tonight, in through the overnight hours, possibly into early Monday. Details are still emerging, but on this video I will walk you through what we know, with the latest from the Storm Prediction Center,  and I’ll show you future radar. I hope you have a moment or two to watch this important update.  Stay weather aware today & tonight.

Updated outlook from SPC (8am edition) has upgraded west central and SW Alabama to an Enhanced risk.  The Slight Risk area has also been bumped several miles eastward into east Alabama.  All of the state is under a severe risk today & tonight.

Here’s a few Future Radar snapshots for this afternoon & tonight.
