A few places will squeak out a decent morning, but most of us will have rain and storms by this afternoon and evening.

The Storm Prediction Center has placed the southeastern corner of Alabama under a Level 1 risk for the potential of severe weather. The risk area includes the southern Montgomery suburbs, Troy, and Eufaula. This area has the potential for a few severe storms, damaging winds, hail, and a brief tornado.

Once we get through the next several hours, we’ll enter a stretch of sunny, pleasant days.
