Alabama was bracing for Round 2 of severe weather on Saturday. Round 1 started early this morning and prompted two tornado warnings and multiple severe thunderstorm warnings but no damage has been reported so far.

An "outbreak" of tornadoes and severe thunderstorms is expected through Saturday night in Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and other southern states.

A destructive wave of storms swept into Alabama on Saturday, bringing with them a rarely-seen threat level for possible long-track tornadoes, winds of up to 70 m.p.h., golf ball-sized hail and torrential rain.

"The storm which prompted the warning has moved out of the area. Therefore, the warning will be allowed to expire. A Tornado Watch remains in effect until 8 p.m. for northwestern Alabama," states the National Weather Service.
