OT mets: is this tornado possibility real?

I'd say the possibility is great

there will either be a tornado or there won't.

so i'd say the possibility is real.

Not as serious as pink, purple, or black

a Forecast allows you to prepare, right or wrong it is a prep warning

Well, I mean...yeah.

Especially since that graphic is from NOAA, and not your local guys.

They get the forecast right about half of the time.

Tomorrow is a very real threat for severe weather across northern and central Alabama. All modes of severe weather are possible: hail, straight line winds, and tornadoes (possibly a couple of strong tornadoes).

You definitely should be weather aware tomorrow and have a way to get warnings.

No one can predict a tornado specifically but they are getting much better at predicting a outbreak over a area or region.

I sure there is a chance but it's probably mostly media hype.

This is not some threat the media just came up with. The computer forecast models are in pretty good agreement showing the potential for a serious severe weather threat tomorrow.

In Alabama? I sure there is a chance but it's probably mostly media hype. In Oklahoma or Kansas - yeah, make sure the shelter is stocked.

Alabama has had more violent tornados touch down than any where else in the country.
