Update: Slight Risk Now Targets Tennessee Valley, Mid-South Cities Today
We've been tracking the storms pushing damaging winds from Tennessee into Mississippi and Alabama, as noted in our recent coverage. The situation has evolved: the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has now issued a Slight Risk for Monday, June 1, covering Huntsville and Birmingham in Alabama; Nashville and Memphis in Tennessee; and Little Rock in Arkansas.
A Slight Risk means isolated severe thunderstorms are possible in these areas. Expect potential for large hail, damaging wind gusts, and perhaps an isolated tornado or two, though widespread impacts aren't anticipated. These storms build on the unstable air mass fueling recent activity, with clusters likely developing this afternoon and evening.
Looking ahead, SPC flags another Slight Risk for Tuesday, June 2, across North Dakota and South Dakota, where isolated storms could bring similar hazards.
