Good Friday morning,

Bottom Line:

Strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible beginning late Saturday night and continuing into the daytime hours on Sunday.

There is a Slight Risk (level 2 of 5) for severe storms generally across southeast Alabama and the Florida Panhandle with a Marginal Risk (level 1 of 5) elsewhere for this event.

Overview:

A cold front will move across the area late Saturday night into Sunday. Along and ahead of this front, a squall line is likely to move across the area. The strong to severe storms in the line could produce damaging wind gusts and a couple tornadoes. The highest threat is generally in the Central Time Zone counties during the overnight hours Saturday night. The squall line will likely exit the Suwannee Valley late Sunday afternoon.

Some locally heavy rainfall is possible, but the storms should be progressive enough to keep the overall flood threat low.
