Wrlp weather columbus ga12/7/2023 Let me be clear, despite what I said: THERE IS STILL SEVERE WEATHER AND TORNADO RISK FOR ALABAMA. The dryline is already clearly visible moving into Alabama currently, and once you are past that dryline, the event is over for you. In fact, as the system gets closer and closer to Eastern Alabama it will start entering a much more stable airmass, in which case the severe threat will go down considerably. But the storms today have been struggling to keep their rotation, and there is not much reason for me to believe that this will change as the night goes on. There is STILL some potential for tornadoes, especially throughout north/central Alabama, as there is still some strong low-level shear present in the PDS Tornado Watch area. The current state of affairs, in my opinion, is that the tornado threat has lessened significantly over the course of the past 1-2 hours. General rundown for those who are wondering whether this event is over: Remember that the odds of you being directly impacted by a tornado is very slim, even on a moderate risk day. Also, be prepared and know what to do if a tornado warning is issued. ![]() Your actually in a less favorable place for tornadoes than I am. ![]() This region should also have a locally higher degree of instability compared to Greensboro. This region is the anticipated location of a wedge front which may increase low-level shear in its vicinity. However, the most favorable environment for tornadoes as NWS Raleigh points out in their AFD, is a 30 mile radius around US 1. Current trends suggest that you would be impacted by thunderstorms before 4pm. Please refer to NWS Raleigh for local weather information, not people on Reddit. Odds of a tornado actually impacting you, even on a severe weather outbreak day, is very slim. However, you need to be aware but not scared. There is good reason for concern tomorrow.
