Weekend Outlook
James Spann, ABC 33/40, and Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Chief Meteorologist said that we can “expect a mix of sun and storms across Alabama through the weekend. Storms will be strong where they form with a chance of hail and strong winds.” Also, there is “no way of giving a thunderstorm ETA for any given spot in this pattern; you just have to watch radar trends.”
Saturday Highlights
The majority of the Townsquare Media coverage area is under a “marginal” risk area while a small portion is under a “slight” risk.
The main threats are the potential for damaging wind gusts and large hail. Alabamians should stay weather aware from Noon through 10 p.m.
Plus, “locally heavy rainfall/flooding could also arise at times,” said the National Weather Service in Birmingham.
