Severe storms and heavy rains are expected to impact parts of the South following weeks of inclement weather that killed over two dozen people across the region. This comes after a devastating Memorial Day weekend that left communities from Texas to New York picking up the pieces. Tornadoes, storms and heavy rain across the region killed at least 27 people and left hundreds of thousands without power.
Widespread rain totals may reach an inch or two, but by the southern edge of the front in the Deep South and Gulf states, heavy rain can lead to flooding incidents — with up to 4 inches possible across parts of the Florida panhandle, Alabama and Mississippi. A flood watch is in place through Saturday afternoon along coastal Alabama, specifically Mobile, and the western portion of the Florida panhandle.
