Good Morning… Alabama is picking up the pieces this morning after a day and night of violent tornadoes.
I was up very late. I have a brief blog update for you this morning. We have a very warm forecast for the last weekend of March. Showers will be around at times. More storms arrive Sunday, and we have yet another threat for severe weather.
TODAY: Another warm day. High 78. Most cloudy. Another risk of scattered showers and possibly some thunderstorms today. (40%) Not severe. Low tonight 67.
NEXT FEW DAYS: Very warm Saturday. Mid 80’s. Spotty showers. Showers and storms become likely Sunday. Risk of showers Monday through Wednesday. Continued warm.

HISTORIC DESTRUCTIVE TORNADOES THURSDAY: There will be more Tornado Surveys over the next few days, after a series of large, violent long-tracked tornadoes across Alabama and surrounding states. There were 24 tornado reports, and so far at least 8 confirmed tornadoes in our state. At least five people lost their lives. Damage was severe in multiple counties. These numbers will change. It was an epic, historic tornado day, just 8 days after a significant outbreak on March 17th.
