I get the idea will are really doing to be busy in the weather office for the rest of December.
For all the details, check out the morning video:

First up, we have the dual flood/severe weather threat which will mainly come from about 4:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. tomorrow. All of the real fireworks today will probably stay well to the west of us, where a moderate risk of severe weather is forecast from northeast Texas into west Tennessee and north Mississippi. A few damaging tornaodes are certainly possible in this area later today and tonight.
A squall line, or some type of convective system, should pass through here tomorrow morning. Instability values and wind profiles suggest some of the storms will produce damaging winds, and a few isolated tornadoes are not out of the question. I don't think this will have the same punch as the pre-Thanksgiving storm, but we will be on our toes. NWS Birmingham and Huntsville have posted flood watches for tonight and tomorrow; additional rain amounts of about 1 to 2 inches are likely, with isolated amounts to 3 inches.
Winter weather fans will have their turn over the latter half of December.
There is NO way you can be specific this far out, but here is the setup:
*A surge of cold air drops into the deep south early next week in the December 13-15 time frame.
*A major storm forms in the northeast Gulf of Mexico in the December 16-18 time frame, which moves up the Atlantic coast.
*Another very cold airmass drops in behind that storm in the December 18-20 time frame.
SO... will we have our first ice or snow threat with the December 16-18 storm? Maybe. Or, it could be to the north, along the I-40 corridor in Tennessee. Lets get through this severe weather event tomorrow and we can begin to focus on the winter storm fun and games.
