It seems like week after week since Severe Weather Season kicked off, we have some sort of weather conditions to monitor. Today, we are closely monitoring the potential for severe storms and flooding issues. A cold front will move through Central Alabama. The National Weather Service in Birmingam notes that the “threat will end from northwest and southeast for all of Central Alabama as the front clears.”
