Flash Flood Warning Reissued - Observed



 9:46 PM - By the way, as far as the severe weather threat, we could still technically see a damaging wind gust or even an isolated tornado tonight.




But the air is relatively cool and stable, even as you get down into Central Alabama, and the chance of anything spinning up to severe limits is minimal, not zero, but very, very low. 

The flooding is the thing to watch out for, just turn around, don't drown, if you encounter a flooded road.

And if you doubt that this is serious, please understand that the bridge on County Road 703 in Hanceville is under water.
