Weather alert announced for strong thunderstorms in Shelby County early Sunday evening

The National Weather Service issued a weather alert at 4:31 p.m. on Sunday for strong thunderstorms until 5 p.m. for Shelby County.

Residents may experience wind gusts of up to 40 mph.

“At 4:31 p.m., Doppler radar tracked a strong thunderstorm over University Of Montevallo, or over Montevallo, moving northeast at 25 mph,” says the weather service. “Gusty winds could knock down tree limbs and blow around unsecured objects.”

Locations impacted by the alert include Columbiana, Wilton, American Village, Camp Branch, University Of Montevallo, Saddle Lake Farms, Alabaster Veterans Park, Bounds Lake, Shelby County Airport, Calera, Montevallo, Saginaw, Dogwood and Alabaster.

According to the weather service, “If outdoors, consider seeking shelter inside a building. Torrential rainfall is also occurring with this storm and may lead to localized flooding. Do not drive your vehicle through flooded roadways.”

Preparing for approaching lightning: Expert safety advice

Lightning strikes the United States approximately 25 million times each year, with the bulk of these electrical discharges occurring during the summer months. Tragically, lightning claims the lives of about 20 individuals annually, as reported by the weather service. The risk of lightning-related incidents escalates as thunderstorms draw near, reaching its peak when the storm directly looms overhead. However, it gradually recedes as the tempest moves away.

To guarantee your safety in the midst of a thunderstorm, take into account the following recommendations:

Lightning safety plan:

  • When venturing outdoors, it’s vital to establish a clear plan for seeking shelter in case of lightning.
  • Monitor the sky for threatening signs and listen for the sound of thunder. If thunder is audible, it’s an indication that lightning is nearby.
  • Seek shelter promptly in a safe location, preferably indoors.

Indoors safety measures:

  • Once you’ve found shelter indoors, abstain from using corded phones, electrical appliances, or plumbing fixtures, and refrain from approaching windows and doors.
  • Lightning can follow conductive pathways, and these precautions reduce the risk of electrical surges.

Wait for the all-clear:

  • After the last lightning strike or thunderclap, wait at least 30 minutes before resuming outdoor activities.
  • It’s important to remember that lightning can strike even when a storm seems to have passed, so exercise caution.

When indoor shelter isn’t available:

If you find yourself outdoors with no access to indoor shelter during a thunderstorm, take these steps to maximize your safety:

  • Avoid open fields, hilltops, or ridge crests, as they expose you to greater lightning risk.
  • Steer clear of tall, isolated trees and other prominent objects. In wooded areas, stay close to lower stands of trees.
  • If you’re in a group, ensure that individuals are spaced out to prevent lightning current from transferring between people.
  • Camping in an open setting during a thunderstorm is strongly discouraged. If no alternative exists, set up camp in a valley, ravine, or other low-lying areas. Remember that a tent offers no protection against lightning.
  • Do not approach water bodies, wet objects, or metal items. Although water and metal do not attract lightning, they conduct electricity effectively and can pose significant risks.

In summary, when facing the threat of lightning, vigilance and preparedness are your best allies. By following these guidelines, you can significantly reduce the chances of lightning-related accidents and prioritize your safety.

Navigating rainy roads: Safety tips for wet weather

When heavy rain sets in, the risk of flooding and hazardous driving conditions rises. Whether it’s prolonged rainfall or rapid runoff, being prepared is essential. Here are some valuable safety tips from the weather service to ensure you stay safe in heavy rain:

Beware of swollen waterways:

During heavy rain, avoid parking or walking near culverts or drainage ditches, where swift-moving water can pose a serious risk.

Maintain safe driving distances:

Use the two-second rule to maintain a safe distance from the car in front of you and allow an extra two seconds in heavy rain.

Slow down and drive with care:

On wet roads, slowing down is paramount. Gradually ease off the accelerator and avoid abrupt braking to prevent skidding.

Choose your lane wisely:

Stick to the middle lanes to minimize the risk of hydroplaning. Outer lanes are more prone to accumulating water.

Prioritize visibility

Enhance your visibility in heavy rain by turning on your headlights. Watch out for vehicles in blind spots, as rain-smeared windows can obscure them.

Watch out for slippery roads:

The first half-hour of rain is when roads are slickest due to a mix of rain, grime, and oil. Exercise heightened caution during this period.

Keep a safe distance from large vehicles:

Large trucks and buses can reduce your visibility with tire spray. Avoid tailgating and pass them swiftly and safely.

Mind your windshield wipers:

Overloaded wiper blades can hinder visibility. If rain severely limits your sight, pull over and wait for conditions to improve. Seek refuge at rest areas or protected spots.

When stopping by the roadside is your only option, position your vehicle as far off the road as possible, ideally beyond guardrails. Keep your headlights on and activate emergency flashers to alert other drivers of your position.

In the face of heavy rain, these precautions can make a significant difference in ensuring your safety on the road. Remember to stay informed about weather conditions and heed guidance from local authorities for a secure journey.

Why did Morgan Wallen walk off the stage as ‘SNL’ ended?

Country superstar Morgan Wallen performed two songs from a forthcoming album that is expected to be one of the year’s biggest blockbusters on “Saturday Night Live,” but it wasn’t the music that stirred up the most chatter after the episode ended.

It was his abrupt walk-off during the usual group hugs at the close of the show, followed by a social media post that suggested he was in a hurry to get out of New York, both creating speculation about whether or not Wallen was sending signals that his “SNL” experience was not a happy one.

Sources in Wallen’s camp say there’s nothing to the conjecture that the singer was signaling tension, maintaining that he had a good time and no slight was intended with either his prominent exit or his Instagram post.

During the traditional “SNL” close, Wallen did stick around long enough to salute the audience, and then to share a light hug with host Mikey Madison.

But, bucking protocol, he then bolted from the stage rather than stick around for stage time with the cast, walking into the audience and straight toward (and past) the camera.

It marked the first time veteran “SNL” watchers could remember a guest making an early departure from the stage, or certainly one quite that in-your-face.

Later, Wallen’s sole post to his social media after the show consisted of a photo of his private jet on the tarmac in New York with the caption: “Get me to God’s country.”

Even before the IG post, and more so after it, the flood of reactions on social media seemed to be split three ways: (a) this was all inadvertent, and Wallen clearly wasn’t thinking how his exit would be read; (b) it was a deliberate flip-off, and he was being rude to the show; or (c) it was deliberate and good for him for sticking it to a liberal cast that was probably rude to him first.

According to sources in his world, it was that first option — no slight was intended, and the buzz misreads the star just being off-the-cuff as usual.

When Wallen made a quick dart toward the camera to make his getaway, it was simply an “oops” moment that everyone on hand had a laugh about, according to those familiar with his camp’s perception of how it went down; that was the way he entered and exited the studio all week during rehearsal and camera blocking, so he wasn’t thinking about being on-camera when he strolled off stage.

As for his ambiguously NYC-dissing “Get me to God’s country” social post not expressing any pleasure over the performance or directly referring to “SNL” at all, this was just typical Wallen, say those in his world, since he rarely posts about accomplishments or accolades. (The star did not say anything on his socials last fall about his triumphant CMA Awards win for entertainer of the year, either, which he was not on hand to accept.)

Regardless of how it was intended or not intended, the buzz about whether he meant to give “SNL” a brushoff continued into Sunday morning. Some talked about the seeming distance between the cast and Wallen even before he left the stage, or posted screenshots of Ego Nwodim and Kenan Thompson seeming to share a bemused moment as Nwodim looked in the direction of where Wallen had made his way out.

A sampling of tweets:

“Wow, Morgan Wallen just walking off the stage during the @nbcsnl credits? In decades of watching SNL, I don’t think I’ve ever seen that. For so many of us, that is sacred ground.”

“All this hate to Morgan Wallen because he walked off stage before the end credits as if he hasn’t been getting bashed literally all week by all you insane liberals. He dosnt owe you anything and you all are low life haters who can’t let go of the past. Like grow tf up.

Alongside a screenshot of his IG “God’s country” post: “Morgan Wallen with a little more of the catty-ass petty loser shit he so proudly displayed running offstage down the center aisle & right past the camera at SNL curtain call… This & the tone-deaf private jet flaunt couldn’t be more lame & undercutting coming from a country star.”

“Morgan Wallen shows the SNL cast exactly how he feels. Love it!”

“Something SO pleasing about seeing morganwallen storm off stage during goodnights. Don’t let the door hit ya!!!!!!!!!!”

“If you go back and watch the clips of Mikey with Morgan and Chloe from midweek (the hi I’m Mikey Madison and I’m hosting SNL this week with Morgan Wallen clips) you’ll see he didn’t want to shoot those either, and probably only did SNL cause his manager and agent made him.”

“It’s ain’t rocket science: Morgan Wallen dipped because the entire cast (queen Mikey excluded) are a bunch of self-righteous, sanctimonious shitlibs who think they’re better than conservatives. I wouldn’t hang around longer than I had to either.”

“I wonder what blackmail Morgan Wallen has on Lorne Michaels to keep getting invited to perform, only to rudely ditch the cast and host during the curtain call at the end of the show.”

“The Big Mad & Miserable Lib Snowflakes are crying about this Epic FU, while hunting for this video on X, bc so few people even watch the boring, humorless trash that SNL has become.”

Although some musical guests have figured in sketches on recent “SNL” episodes, Wallen did not make any appearances on the show outside of singing “I’m the Problem” and “Just in Case.” There was an appearance by a musician in a pre-taped sketch, however — Joe Jonas.

Wallen’s history with “SNL” already had some controversy to it.

In October 2020, he was booked for the show and then un-booked, after being seen on video flouting COVID pandemic protocols in the days leading up to the show by kissing multiple woman at a party in Tuscaloosa after an Alabama game.

Jack White replaced him at the last minute on his scheduled Oct. 10, 2020 episode, and Wallen apologized for the breach that caused his cancellation. But Michaels said at the time that Wallen would be invited back, and he indeed made his debut on Dec. 5 of that year, appearing in a sketch on that episode that made light of the earlier cancellation.

This weekend’s performance marked his first return to “SNL” since a major disruption in his career in early 2021 when he was captured on video using the N-word as a seeming term of endearment for a friend.

He was barred by most major broadcast outlets and awards shows for a year or more after that stir, but Wallen has gone on to become and remain one of the most successful figures in recent contemporary music.

According to Billboard, Wallen’s “Dangerous: The Double Album” is the top album of the 21st century, to date.

His most recent album, “One Thing at a Time,” is also among the top 10 albums so far this century, at No. 7.

His forthcoming release, “I’m the Problem,” comes out May 16 and is expected to be one of 2025’s biggest albums.

Update: Penny-sized hail forecast with thunderstorms in Baldwin County Sunday

The National Weather Service issued an updated report at 2:07 p.m. on Sunday for strong thunderstorms until 2:45 p.m. for Baldwin County.

The storms are predicted to bring penny-sized hail (0.75 inches) and wind gusts of up to 40 mph.

“At 2:06 p.m., Doppler radar tracked a strong thunderstorm 12 miles west of Molino, or 15 miles northeast of Loxley, moving east at 10 mph,” states the weather service. “Gusty winds could knock down tree limbs and blow around unsecured objects. Minor damage to outdoor objects is possible.”

The alert is for Molino.

The weather service comments, “If outdoors, consider seeking shelter inside a building. Torrential rainfall is also occurring with this storm and may lead to localized flooding. Do not drive your vehicle through flooded roadways. Frequent cloud to ground lightning is occurring with this storm. Lightning can strike 10 miles away from a thunderstorm. Seek a safe shelter inside a building or vehicle.”

When lightning looms: Expert safety tips for thunderstorms

Each year, lightning strikes the United States approximately 25 million times, with the majority of these electrifying events occurring during the summer months. Unfortunately, lightning is responsible for claiming the lives of approximately 20 people annually, as reported by the weather service. The threat of lightning becomes more pronounced as thunderstorms draw nearer, peaking when the storm is directly overhead and gradually waning as it moves away.

To ensure your safety during a thunderstorm, keep these recommendations in mind:

Lightning safety plan:

  • When venturing outdoors, it’s crucial to have a lightning safety plan in place.
  • Monitor the sky for threatening signs and listen for the sound of thunder. If thunder is audible, it’s an indication that lightning is nearby.
  • Seek a safe place to shelter, preferably indoors.

Indoors safety measures:

  • Once you’ve found shelter indoors, abstain from using corded phones, electrical appliances, or plumbing fixtures, and refrain from approaching windows and doors.
  • Lightning can follow conductive pathways, and these precautions reduce the risk of electrical surges.

In summary, when facing the threat of lightning, preparedness and vigilance are your best allies. By following these guidelines, you can significantly reduce the likelihood of lightning-related incidents and prioritize your safety.

Driving through downpours: Safety guidelines for wet roads

Heavy rainfall may lead to flooding if prolonged or if there is excessive runoff. Excessive runoff can be a result of saturated ground and/or rainfall intensity. Follow these recommendations from the weather service to stay safe in heavy rain:

Beware of swollen waterways:

Avoid parking or walking in close proximity to culverts or drainage ditches, as the swiftly moving water during heavy rain can potentially carry you away.

Maintain safe driving distances:

Use the two-second rule to maintain a safe distance from the car in front of you and allow an extra two seconds in heavy rain.

Slow down and stay cautious:

If it is raining and the roads are wet, slow down. Take your foot off the accelerator and let your speed drop gradually. Never use the brakes suddenly because this may cause the car to skid.

Choose your lane wisely:

Stick to the middle lanes to minimize the risk of hydroplaning. Outer lanes are more prone to accumulating water.

Visibility matters:

Turn on your headlights and be careful of other vehicles to the rear and in blind spot areas as they are especially difficult to see through rain-spattered windows.

Watch out for slippery roads:

The first half-hour of rain is when roads are slickest due to a mix of rain, grime, and oil. Exercise heightened caution during this period.

Keep a safe distance from large vehicles:

Large trucks and buses can reduce your visibility with tire spray. Avoid tailgating and pass them swiftly and safely.

Overloaded wiper blades can hinder visibility. If rain severely impairs your vision, pull over and wait for conditions to improve. Seek refuge at rest areas or sheltered spots.

When stopping by the roadside is your only option, position your vehicle as far off the road as possible, ideally beyond guardrails. Keep your headlights on and activate emergency flashers to alert other drivers of your position.

By following these safety measures, you can significantly reduce risks and ensure your well-being when heavy rain pours down. Stay informed about weather conditions and heed advice from local authorities to make your journey safe and sound.
