A few strong to severe storms will be possible tomorrow from East Texas into Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and the Florida Panhandle along/ahead of an east moving cold front.

The Storm Prediction Center has delineated a “slight” (level 2 out of 5) risk area, and a “marginal” (level 1 out of 5) risk area (see figure 1).

The primary threat will be damaging winds, but isolated tornadoes and some instances of hail can’t be ruled out.
