Early Dismissal on Wednesday, March 17



The NWS has placed all of central Alabama, including Bibb County, in the Moderate Risk category (Level 4/5) for Wednesday afternoon thru Early Thursday morning. The Moderate Risk indicates the possibility of strong long track tornadoes, damaging winds up to 80MPH, and golf ball size hail.



While the timing of the main line of these storms projects to be Wednesday evening into the night for our area, there will be the potential for some earlier thunderstorm formation in the late morning into the afternoon hours. While these earlier storms are not expected to produce strong long track tornadoes, they could reach severe status and will be monitored.



We all hope the forecast is off and that no violent storms or tornadoes impact our county (or state), but the NWS says the ingredients are there for the making.



All Bibb County Schools will dismiss 3 HOURS EARLY on Wednesday, March 17. All afterschool activities, games, practices, etc. will be cancelled. Should we suffer some significant storm damage or power outages in the overnight hours on Wednesday, there will be the possibility of a delay on Thursday morning.



Please remember that there are storm shelters at Woodstock Elementary School, West Blocton Elementary School, Bibb County Career Academy, Randolph Elementary School, and in Brent next to the Texaco/Wendy’s. Please double check your flashlights, battery operated radios, weather radios, cell phone chargers, and other severe weather preparedness.
