Alabama has no active hail or wind alerts right now, and there are no notable local events to flag. The SPC mesoscale discussions are focused well north of AL, with severe storms from the central Plains into Minnesota and the Dakotas producing hail around 1 to 2.5 inches, wind gusts near 55 to 70 mph, and a couple of tornadoes in those corridors, but no Alabama-specific severe threat is mentioned.
Statewide maxima from SPC verified reports and NWS warnings, last 12 months. Tornado EF ratings are assigned by NWS survey teams after ground surveys and published in NOAA's final storm records.

How Alabama compares nationally
Ranked by SPC verified storm reports (wind, hail, tornado) across all 50 states over the last 12 months. Severity-weighted index scores each report by hazard (tornado ×20, hail ×4, wind ×1) so a single derecho's flood of wind reports doesn't outweigh tornado outbreaks. Recalculated daily as of Sep 11, 2026.
