Severe Weather Threat Ends Across Alabama as Watch Expires and Storms Weaken
As of 11 pm, the Severe Thunderstorm Watch officially expired, and as of 11:41, the last active warning—covering parts of Pike, Bullock, Macon, Barbour, and Russell counties—has been canceled. The line of storms that prompted multiple warnings earlier this evening continues to weaken as it moves southward, now falling below severe limits.
Radar still shows some pockets of heavy rain and gusty winds, but the overall severe threat has ended. Earlier, the strongest winds passed through areas like Union Springs in Bullock County and along Highway 26 between Hatchechubbee and Hurtsboro in Russell County. Emergency managers will monitor for any reports of downed trees or wind damage in those areas.
The bottom line: the severe weather event is over for Alabama tonight. Thanks to all who stayed weather-aware and shared updates throughout the evening.
