I know we just started severe weather season, but it appears we are off to a full swing. We are always monitoring weather conditions for our area to keep you informed of any possible severe weather. The National Weather Service in Birmingham has given us a heads-up for Thursday with a Hazardous Weather Outlook. “A strong storm system could bring a potential for damaging winds and tornadoes Thursday afternoon into Thursday night.”

James Spann, ABC 33/40, and Townsquare Media Tuscaloosa Chief Meteorologist noted on Facebook that “strong storms are likely Thursday afternoon and Thursday night... a little too early to determine the magnitude of the severe weather threat.”
