Worst Weather on its way

Tornado warnings continued to be issued not for just the fact that there are tornadoes, but mainly for the main eyewall approaching the area. The worst of the weather is nearing and we expect winds of hurricane force gusts certainly. Katrina is slowly weakening but is very powerful.

People need to be off of the roads now. Lots of rain is falling and trees/powerlines beginning to come down so driving is very hazardous at this point.

We apologize for having radar problems but the JAN radar has been knocked off line and we are using mainly the MOB radar right now. Regardless, we know that bad weather is on the way and now is the time to be in your shelters and ride this out for the next hours.

More to come!

My parents live in the Dogwood Hills area of Meridian and are already without power.

Downtown Demopolis is without power, which also knocked out the cable television. Thanks so much for this service. Since our power is still on, this is a real blessing as it is the only source I have except the weather alert radio.
