At least two tornadoes were confirmed from Wednesday's storm system in the south, in addition to numerous reports of strong winds. One tornado caused damage in Clarke County, Alabama, in addition to a tornado that caused damage to multiple buildings around Columbia, MS.



Storms will continue to ride along a cold front through the day on Thursday, with severe storms possible until Thursday evening. Daytime heating will be a big factor for when severe storms are possible as energy is limited otherwise.

Strong damaging winds and an isolated tornado will remain the primary threats for Thursday. The SPC has issued a marginal risk (level one out of five) for he areas in dark green below.

Pockets of heavy rain could cause flooding issues, primarily around the Gulf Coast and Big Bend of Florida, but I-75 in Georgia could be impacted as well.
