The widespread rain and storms from the morning hours continues to gradually push east out of the area, and most of the afternoon looks to be dry for much of North and Central Alabama. However, we can\u2019t rule out some additional scattered showers and storms this afternoon in some locations.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Additionally, strong storms remain a threat across South Alabama where gusty winds and small hail are the main threats. The tornado threat is low, but there have been a few tornado warnings this morning along the coastal counties. Due to the clouds and rain, most locations today will stay in the 70s for highs. <\/p>\n
