Alabamians Can Expect Several Rounds of Showers and Thunderstorms
Several rounds of showers and thunderstorms will pass through the rest of this morning and continue into the evening.
National Weather Service in Birmingham said, “Isolated severe thunderstorms will be possible, but this will be conditional upon sufficient instability developing after the early morning storms. If storms can move over the same area consistently, localized flooding may also be a concern.”
The timing of this possible active weather will be today, Saturday, June 1, between 10 a.m. and 9 p.m., with nearly the entire state under a marginal risk. This includes the Townsquare Media Coverage Area of Bibb, Fayette, Greene, Hale, Lamar, Perry, Pickens, Sumter, Tuscaloosa, and Walker counties.
The potential threats are “damaging winds up to 60 mph and localized flooding,” said the National Weather Service in Birmingham.
James Spann, ABC 33/40, and Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Chief Meteorologist said, “There will be some good breaks in the rain, and the sun could peek out at times. But, also keep in mind a few stronger thunderstorms are possible this afternoon with the potential for small hail and gusty winds.”
For Sunday, Spann said to “expect showers and storms to be more scattered in nature tomorrow with a mix of sun and clouds. The high tomorrow will be in the mid-80s.”
