Hurricane Katrina was moving northward through East Central Mississippi late this afternoon.
At 4 pm, a wind gust of 81 mph was reported at Meridian Airport. Power is out through parts of the city and county.
While it is windy over most of Alabama, the highest winds are yet to come for the West and Central part of the state. Especially in places like Demopolis, Greensboro, Vernon, Fayette, Tuscaloosa, Birmingham (to name a few)
Another Tornado warning was issued for macon County.
Spiral bands continue to swirl northward all the way from the Gulf of Mexico into North Alabama. In these bands is where small tornadoes sometime form and dissipate quickly.
We have the unusual situation where all 67 Alabama counties are under a Tornado Watch.

Incidentally, I would love it if the weather in Bham stayed nice and boring all night long. Boring is good when it comes to hurricane-related weather.
