TROPICAL SYSTEM LIKELY TO BRING RAIN, PERHAPS OTHER IMPACTS, TO LOCAL AREA LATER IN WEEK… We’re looking at another very wet pattern setting up in a few days as a developing tropical storm takes shape in the Gulf. The odds of a tropical storm forming in the southern or western https://t.co/tvsgWfoji9

Rain continues across much of the region this evening.
A low-end risk of a tornado or two continues RIGHT AT the immediate coast/beaches and immediately offshore. VERY narrow corridor for any brief tornadoes.
The tornado risk likely ends by 10PM. https://t.co/eFd5AnMTRG

Rain continues to slowly (emphasis on SLOWLY) drift eastward this evening.
Low-end risk of a few tornadoes will continue near the beaches and bays over the next few hours. https://t.co/3E3ddRAKfD

I never dreamed I would have to do live tornado warning coverage without ALL three of our local radars (Mobile, Eglin AFB, Ft. Rucker).
Thankful to say: We got it done. ✅ https://t.co/QHYWgF0vek
BIG kudos to @NWSMobile for constant updates.

NWS Mobile is closely monitoring these cells south of the Alabama coast that are very likely producing waterspouts. Looks like any tornado warnings that may be needed in the hours ahead will happen near or at the immediate coastline…
Rain continues further inland. https://t.co/ISRCNLClbV

Just wrapped up tornado warning coverage a bit ago for southern Baldwin County. Rain continues to stream northward across the region this evening. Any brief, spin-up tornado that happens over the next few hours will occur near the AL & NW FL beaches. https://t.co/yxKU8WVO4V
