It looks like Alabama will be at the greatest risk for damaging weather this afternoon, but Middle Tennessee also runs the risk of severe thunderstorms later today. The line of showers moving slowly across West Tennessee this morning should pick up steam as it moves toward Nashville. If you’ve been outside today you know that there’s a lot of wind energy in the atmosphere. Southerly winds at the surface and southwesterly winds aloft may provide enough rotation for an isolated tornado, but I don’t believe we’ll repeat the severe weather outbreak of Tuesday November 15th. It’s more likely that we’ll all get some gusty wind ahead and along the leading edge of the t’storms as they roll through. We’ll be watching things closely all day long so rely on News 2 for the latest.
