Active & Stormy Weather Pattern!

After quiet and calm weather the past few days, an active pattern has returned to the area. The Storm Prediction Center has much of Southern MS, AL and GA in a rare (especially for June!) Level 4 out of 5 Moderate Risk for severe weather today. The last time we’ve had a moderate risk in these areas in June was in 2002!

As we break down the threats, notice the area in SE AL that is highlighted for a chance of strong tornadoes (EF2 or greater) today. Also, widespread damaging winds will be possible to our south.

Notice we are also in a risk here in the Shoals area. Our threat comes with damaging winds and maybe some hail with the stronger storms. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued to our SW that goes through early afternoon. More watches will be issued later today across the region.

After today’s active weather, we may have more strong to severe storms on Friday locally, and then again on Sunday! The SPC already has us in a Day 3 and a Day 5 risk!

As always, Stay with Shoals Weather. We will keep you updated!

Storms Arrive Tuesday Night & Wednesday

A disturbance to our west will bring shower and storm chances back to the area after midnight tonight and continuing through the day on Wednesday. A few storms may be strong to possibly severe, with damaging winds and large hail being the main threats.
The HRRR model suggests rain may arrive later tonight.

If the models are correct, we may get a break for much of the day on Wednesday before another round of storms arrives in the evening hours.

Like we mentioned before, the SPC has us in a level 1-2 severe weather risk on Wednesday. Higher severe chances the further south you go.
