Forecast details will refine as systems develop, we'll have better details for each day as we get closer, I'll provide another update on Friday. Expect and prepare for how severe weather may affect your plans this weekend and be sure you have multiple ways of receiving alerts overnight.

The severe weather forecast for last Tuesday was pretty good, although it seemed to skip over the Mobile area.

Be safe, I'll send an update on Friday.
