Potential for severe weather again Tuesday

Rain and thunderstorms are expected Tuesday, but the highest potential for severe weather could stay to the south of Dothan, according to a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.

“There is potential for severe weather tomorrow. It would be most likely be further to your south in North Florida,” Meteorologist Katie Moore said. “But depending on how the low tracks, if it moves more inland, there would be more of a threat for the Southeast Alabama area.”

Wiregrass residents, she said, should keep an eye on the weather Tuesday.

“You’re definitely going to see some showers and thunderstorms up there,” Moore said. “It’s currently looking like the highest severe threat is going to be closer to the coast, but definitely stay weather aware and be on the lookout for updates.”

Tuesday’s weather will be generated by a low pressure system expected to develop over the Gulf of Mexico and move northeastward inland from the Florida Panhandle and across southern Georgia, Moore said. The system should move inland around Panama City, Florida, in the morning, working its way eastward during the afternoon. Of course the speed of the system will determine the timing of impact for the Wiregrass.
