CandymanColumbusGA Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I see the CandyMan from Columbus GA, you on the air this morning? Be careful! Thanks! I am on the air this morning, but it's outside of our viewing area. Hopefully this Chilton Co. tornado weakens as it heads toward Chambers Co. in Alabama...

OceanStWx Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 The good news would be that the environment isn't really favorable to sustain the northern most storm right now. The Chilton County storm though still has some decent air to work with, and appears to be attempting a cycle now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeEater Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Scott McClellan Multiple gas leaks in this area. Old Springville Road completely blocked with trees and downed lines. Some neighborhoods are completely gone. If there are no deaths out here, it will be a miracle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaculaWeather Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Once they cross into Georgia, especially north Georgia, they should weaken a lot. I'm at 39 degrees right now in a wedge while they're in the mid 60's over in AL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
