Tracking damaging storms and a chance for severe weather Sunday
COLUMBUS, Ga. (WRBL)- The First Alert Weather Team continues to monitor storms moving through the region this evening. Power outages and damages are reported across western and central Alabama. As these storms push through, a few will be strong to severe. Sunday: These storms will exit by 10PM ET tonight, giving us a few hours before the next round. Another chance for severe weather is possible early Sunday morning, making us WEATHER AWARE. This line will enter from the north, bringing a threat for damaging winds, small hail, and heavy rainfall. Most of the area is under a level 2/5 risk (or slight). A few strong storms will be possible again in the afternoon, depending on the behavior of the morning system. Monday: Another WEATHER AWARE day is in store Monday. A line of storms is set to develop Monday afternoon. The SPC has issued a level 2/5 (slight) risk for Monday. Primary threats are damaging winds and hail. Next Week: Multiple stalled fronts will keep the unsettled pattern in our forecast through next weekend. Every day will bring a chance for storms, and temperatures will sit in the upper 80s/ lower 90s. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Sunday Brings Scattered Showers with T-Storms Possible
Looks like an unsettled Sunday. We got through with a relatively calm Saturday. Temperatures topped out in the mid-to-upper 80s (86° at BWI- Marshall @ 3:51pm).Spotty showers across the state stayed light, so hopefully your outdoor plans were only briefly impacted. A few thunderstorms could develop tonight as an upper level disturbance moves in. We'll have a period of dry and calmer conditions before the unsettled weekend continues. Sunday brings its own rain and storm chance, too. Scattered showers and storms are expected through much of the day. A few showers are possible in your neighborhood to start the day. Around midday, the First Alert Weather team will be monitoring the potential for stronger storms and/or heavier rain to move into Maryland. Sunday afternoon brings a risk for severe weather back to the state. The Storm Prediction Center has us in a level 1 and 2 (out of 5) risk for severe weather on Sunday. The higher chance for those stronger storms will be in Central and Southern Maryland and for our Lower Eastern Shore neighborhoods. Storms may produce damaging winds, small hail and we also cannot rule out some rotation. We may also see some heavier pockets of rain as storms move through. Rain may remain to start Monday before a brief drying out and another risk for showers and storms on Tuesday. The middle and late parts of the upcoming week look much quieter (and drier!). Temperatures also appear to rise back closer to 90° as we approach the middle of the month.
