🛑 SIGNIFICANT RAIN FOR PARTS OF THE STATE
This afternoon’s radar shows scattered showers and storms lifting in from the southwest. Tropical Storm Author meanwhile, remains over the northwest gulf. The system moves inland and weakens but all the tropical moisture moves our way, with rain likely during the day tomorrow. This system will spread some significant rainfall across parts of the region. The highest totals occur over south Alabama where rain amounts could approach a half foot.
The main risk will be flooding, especially over our southern counties where rain amounts may exceed 4”. There could be similar totals in a few areas further north.
🌪️ Will we see a tornado risk? It’s low but non zero with a system like this. Greatest risk is east of the low, which would mean we need to monitor southeast counties. Also, with a system like this brief rotation can develop quickly and not last long, so stay weather alert tomorrow.
More rain and storms wrap in on the backside of the system Friday so the flood risk will continue before improving weather on Saturday.
📲 Stay with WBRC for continued updates on this system. First Alert Weather Days have been declared for Thursday and Friday.
