By Saturday, the severe weather threat level will ramp up from north-central Louisiana to west-central Alabama.
“We do have an increasing concern that there are going to be a lot of storms with a severe weather threat there on Saturday,” Weather Service meteorologist Evan Bentley said.
Greg Abbott activated state emergency response resources Thursday to prepare for the severe weather conditions, he announced on X.
Following a marginal risk of severe storms across the South Friday, the threat is expected to ramp up again on Saturday.
Georgia, the Carolinas and Virginia are under the strongest threat for severe storms Sunday.
