A cold front will move through the Southeast tonight and tomorrow and along with it the Storm Prediction Center is forecasting a Slight (yellow, level 2) and Marginal (dark green, level 1) chance of severe weather. Damaging winds are the main threat with an isolated tornado also possible and maybe some hail in northwest Alabama. There's a chance of some showers and storms before the severe weather becomes possible with the severe threat picking up from the evening through overnight hours shifting to tomorrow morning or midday as the main line of storms moves from northwest to east-southeast overnight. Timing graphics for each area are shown below.
Day 1 Outlook (valid 7 a.m. today - 7 a.m. Sunday)
Day 2 Outlook (valid 7 a.m. Sunday - 7 a.m. Monday)
Birmingham Area
Huntsville Area
Eastern TN
Mobile-Pensacola
Destin-Panama City Area
As with the other events we've had this year widespread impacts don't seem likely, but there is a chance especially later on Saturday in the Slight area that the environment for tornadoes may intensify a little more than the current forecast so keep that in mind.
Regarding the last event last weekend there were no severe weather reports for any of our areas.
Have a great weekend.
