Storm Prediction Center
Hourly Forecast
Round 2: Strong to severe thunderstorms capable of producing heavy rain, lightning, damaging wind gusts, and tornadoes will move across the Tennessee Valley from west to east between 6 pm-3 am.

Know where your safe place is. A basement is the safest location in the event of a tornado warning. If you live in an apartment complex, the first floor is the safest place. If you live a few floors up, now is a good time to get cozy with your first-floor neighbors. If that isn't an option. Choose the most interior space inside your apartment. This will be somewhere like a bathroom or an interior closet away from windows. Campers and trailers are not safe spaces during tornado warnings.
