Here's the latest from the US National Weather Service Mobile Alabama.
Things are gonna get a little dicey! We'll keep monitoring the situation and pass along any important information as we get it.
š“ SEVERE UPDATE FOR MONDAY/TUESDAY - There will be a wave of rain showers that pushes inland Monday afternoon, but note that we are not concerned about that first wave of rain tomorrow (Monday). We are becoming increasingly concerned about the potential for damaging winds of 70+ mph and tornadoes (a couple of which could be strong EF2+ tornadoes) Monday night into Tuesday morning.
Based on our latest assessment, the greatest risk for tornadoes is from 3am to 9am on Tuesday. Conditions will go downhill quickly during that timeframe where we expect to go from a few storms to widespread severe storms.
We are still updating the forecast and will have another update later this afternoon.
I've just released my own fragrance. Nobody in the car seemed to like it.
