A Few Strong Storms Are Possible Tomorrow South of Montgomery and a Review of the Historic Snowstorm

January 30, 2025 

First, no snow in the future!

• No snow is expected in the foreseeable future despite misinformation circulating on social media
• I'll let you know if that changes...not likely, except maybe in north AL or TN

Severe Weather Possible Tomorrow

• Chance of strong storms from Mobile east to Panama City and north to Montgomery
• Marginal risk (level 1 out of 5) for severe weather
• 2% chance of a tornado
• 5% chance of damaging winds
• Environment is borderline for severe weather production, it's possible we don't see anything at all

Recent Historic Snowstorm

• Satellite image shows extensive snow cover in the southeast, may not see a scene like this for generations
• Snowfall total maps available (third image courtesy of Eric Webb, @webberweather on X; the report of 5.2" north of Mobile is from me BTW)
• More info here

Upcoming Weather and Mid-term Outlook

• Rain clearing out by late Friday, followed by slightly cooler temperatures for a few days
• Warming up next week with possible showers Tuesday through Thursday
• Another dip in temps over the weekend with another weather system maybe around the early part second week of February
• Details uncertain for long-range forecast, but no extreme weather events currently anticipated

There was only one severe weather report outside our area from the last severe weather risk we had on the 18th right before the snow. I expect this to be about the same but stay weather aware nonetheless.

Have a great weekend.
