One or more clusters of thunderstorms are expected to develop northwest of Alabama and move southward into portions of Central Alabama. The National Weather Service has upgraded northwest Alabama to a Level 2 of 5 (Slight Risk) for severe weather, with a Level 1 of 5 (Marginal Risk) elsewhere across Central Alabama. While the exact timing and location of the strongest storms remain uncertain, damaging straight-line winds are the primary threat and could result in downed trees and power lines due to saturated soils from recent rainfall and weakened root systems from preceding drought conditions. Large hail is also possible but is considered a secondary threat.

Se espera que uno o más grupos de tormentas eléctricas se desarrollen al noroeste de Alabama y se desplacen hacia el sur a través de partes del centro de Alabama. El Servicio Nacional de Meteorología ha elevado el riesgo de tiempo severo en el noroeste de Alabama a Nivel 2 de 5 (Riesgo Leve), mientras que el resto del centro de Alabama permanece bajo un Nivel 1 de 5 (Riesgo Marginal). Aunque la ubicación y el momento exactos de las tormentas más fuertes siguen siendo inciertos, la principal amenaza serán los vientos dañinos en línea recta, que podrían derribar árboles y líneas eléctricas debido a los suelos saturados por las lluvias recientes y los sistemas de raíces debilitados por la sequía anterior. También es posible la caída de granizo de gran tamaño, aunque se considera una amenaza secundaria.
