A tornado watch has been issued for parts of Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi and Tennessee until 6 AM CDT.
Our risk of severe weather for the remainder of the evening is extremely low. Our next risk of severe storms is overnight into Thursday morning in northwest Alabama, however, storms will most likely stay west of the area. IF the storms make it into the area, the most likely timing is 12 AM-6 AM. Hazards will include damaging winds, large hail, a tornado or two, and heavy rainfall/flooding. We have low confidence in any additional severe weather overnight, but we encourage everyone to continue to have multiple ways to get warnings as this will be very dependent on where the cold front (the mechanism forcing the severe storms) slows down/weakens.
A stalled cold front will continue to support severe storms to our NW through the day. We have low confidence in these storms dipping SE and making it into NW AL. If storms do make it into NW AL, all hazards will be possible including damaging winds, hail, tornadoes, and flooding.
There is a medium risk of severe thunderstorms today in far northwest Alabama, with a low to very low risk further southeast. A cold front will bring a round of thunderstorms, some severe, late Saturday into Sunday morning.
