StormTrack 9: Strong to severe storms remain a possibility later today into the evening and overnight hours. The afternoon sunshine continues to heat things up and allows for the atmosphere to remain unstable. The Storm Prediction Center continues to keep the Tennessee Valley in the Slight Risk category for severe storms. Within that category, it places our local risk for tornadoes at 5% and risk of storms with damaging wind gusts at 30%. The higher risk factor (Moderate Risk) is centered well to our south in central and southern Alabama. So, a lot to keep an eye on through tonight. We will continue to monitor the storms to our south and west for any potential to pose a threat to the Tennessee Valley. Aside from the possibility of severe storms, heavy rain and resulting flash flooding is also an issue through tonight. By Wednesday, residual rain showers should taper off and the atmosphere should become more stable, so no severe weather expected by then. Dry and seasonal conditions for the remainder of the work week. As always, you can depend on us for updates!....(David)
