Part 2/5:
Starting tonight and extending into Saturday, a trough of low pressure is expected to usher in upper-level waves along with heavy storm activity. According to Nussbaum, these conditions are indicative of a weather system capable of producing severe storms that could drastically impact communities across the state. The meteorologist emphasized that the situation warrants attention, as Alabama is looking at a high risk weather event classified as a Level 5 out of 5 on the storm scale, a rarity for the region.
