There is a moderate risk of rip currents along the beaches of

Although the overall threat of severe weather is very low, an

An isolated strong to severe storm cannot be entirely ruled out
Wednesday morning, mainly across the western Florida panhandle.

There is a high risk of rip currents along the beaches of Alabama
