forecast. >> and 76 degrees southwest winds at 16. and the next day or so. and we have a couple of showers moving inland today all of this is due to the heating just like summertime and the action now is focused over sections of alabama and mississippi and the panhandle. reports of damage underway in the parishes of louisiana. the winds are increasing in speed. the winds are a factor as the front goes by. even if we don't get tornadoes. i think the overall risk of tornadoes is fairly small. any one of the storms will be able to produce strong down bursts or straight line winds. that's the main threat but a tough night and the line here is producing tornadoes moving just

sections of mississippi and in mobile. know they move from the gulf. they spin and they produce them in mobile bay. atlanta will have rain and the western panhandle tonight if you have any friends or children are up at fsu tell them to pay attention. there will be a squall line from the west. so our friends up in tallahassee. under the gun or the risk for severe weather. the storm prediction center has us in a risk of weather. 9 a.m. to noon 36789 to 6. the front races by. sea fog tonight. rain is on shore by noon tomorrow. then the frost goes by in a big -- the front goes by in a big, big way. breezy. warm tonight. kind of windy near the coast. down to 70.
