Alabama Skies: Soggy weather ending today as we watch potential for tornadoes later this week
Published 12:48 am Sunday, February 12, 2023
Things will finally start to dry out some today for most of us just in time for grilling this afternoon for the big game. It will still be chilly for most of the state with some breezy conditions.
The Storm Prediction Center posted an interesting graphic, seen above. We know it has been storm across Alabama with several severe systems. The graphic shows all of the tornado watches issued so far this year, and It’s easy to see why some call our region the new “Tornado Alley,” especially this time of year. That doesn’t change anytime soon as we are already gaining confidence there will be some severe weather Wednesday night into Thursday. This biggest questions right now are exactly where the worst storms will be and which modes of severe weather people will experience.
