WVTM 13 Live Doppler Radar | Up your weather photos | Opportunities to stay safe Getting weather notifications The WVTM 13 -weather team has declared an impact day for scattered storms in Alabama on Thursday, March 13, some could be serious. Friday and Saturday are the alarm days because we expect a significant danger of heavy storms such as tornadoes, intensive wind gusts and great hail. Impact Day: Thursday “Impact Day” means that the weather can have a disturbing impact on its normal daily routine. Here is the setup for Thursday: a few showers and storms Dreisen after sunrise on Thursday morning from the west in Alabama and move south all day. If the temperatures warm up in the afternoon, additional storms will form. On Thursday in the center of Alabama, only a few storms will develop, but those that occur could lead to great hail. Effects: Local storms create heavy rain and more flash. A few storms could reach heavy borders with harmful winds or a large hail, especially south of the Interstate 20 in the afternoon. Alert Day: Friday on Friday will be sunny, airy and warm, without significant weather problems. Alabama’s next round of threatening weather will move in after the west from 9 a.m. on Friday at 9:00 p.m. These storms will go down in the western counties of Alabama on Saturday after 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. Since these storms will be in the area overnight, you have sure that you have a Noaa -Weather radio set. You shouldn’t rely on an outdoor siren to wake them up during a warning. Impact: Storms in Alabama on Friday evening until 6 a.m. HALL, strong gusts of wind could bring, and a tornado could be from one of the more intense storms in this line in this line such as Hamilton, Carbon Hill, Jassper, double jumping, fayette, Tuscalosa and Alizeville, a greater probability, in Tuscalosa and a bigger probability Probability, to a greater probability, to a greater probability, to a greater probability, to a greater probability, to a greater probability, in a greater chance. Day: Saturday, March 15th, will bring a considerable risk of storms to the south, including strong gusts of wind over 70 miles per hour, large hail and tornados. Some tornadoes could be strong and long -lined (more than 15 to 20 miles path length). Timing: There will be a round of storms in North and Central Alabama on Saturday morning. These storms could affect development in the afternoon, but we do not believe that they will be enough to stop the threat later a day. A rough estimate of a timeline would start our “main” service on Saturday 11 a.m. and it could take until Sunday at 1 a.m. This will be a long -term storm threat. Effects: A system like this has the potential to be a higher storm threat in Alabama and Mississippi. In this type of environment, both super cells (individual rotating heavy storms) and a squall line are possible. Forecast guidelines suggest that the risk of strong tornados EF2 or higher. Make sure that you have at least two reliable options for maintaining warnings and knowing what your plan will be when a heavy storm approaches. Confidence: We have an unusually high trust in the result of the storm system on Saturday due to the balanced appearance that shows it in forecast model instructions. The setup was presented very consistently, such as the correct balance between fuel (chap, instability) with a strongly “sheared” environment (wind speed increases and changes above the floor). These factors will probably make the threat on Saturday a “classic” storm setup for the south: (1) A strong jet current in the correct position. (2) A small but stronger area of ​​low pressure near Interstate 40 from Memphis to Nashville and a very strong “low ray” (strong gust of wind about a mile above the surface). There are always things that can interfere with systems like this. At the moment we see nothing that looks like a clear error point. If it is balanced as expected, this could be a very difficult day in Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee and Georgia. The “Energy Helicity Index” shows how balanced this looks. What does it mean? Think about it as follows: When storms take place in an environment like this, you have a high chance of being serious and able to produce tornados. These two rounds of the rain and the storms also offer some high rainfall, and it could be sufficient for some floods, with isolated areas receiving more than 2 to 3 inches.
