From Leland Randleman “I saw this large shark swimming through the water at Seaside at 11:26 a.m. An officer came by and said the shark we filmed was at least 15 feet long. They have been following it up and down the beach.” Before you comment, we know “sharks live in the ocean” and “it is their home”. After multiple shark attacks there is heightened interest and I am simply passing along videos and photos without comment. One teenager from Mountain Brook is in critical condition; please consider holding off the snarky comments. Thank you.

Hunter Johnson So how did I receive over 100 videos like this from Alabama tonight? And have you seen the destruction in Mississippi? There is a great big world out there beyond your back yard. This isn’t a good look for you or Townsquare

Gustnado in Trussville earlier when the storm passed through. A gustnado (a blend of the words “gust front” and “tornado”) is a brief, shallow, surface-based whirlwind that forms along the leading edge of a thunderstorm. They are not associated with storm scale rotation, and are classified as thunderstorm wind events. Video from Kayden Russell

The sun is setting over Hurricane Melissa with winds of 175 mph. It turns north and moves over Jamaica tomorrow. Catastrophic, life-threatening flash flooding and numerous landslides are expected through tomorrow. The eyewall’s destructive winds may cause total structural failure, particularly in higher elevations, leading to widespread infrastructural damage, prolonged power and communication outages, and isolated communities.

While everyone wants to talk about the snow potential across the Deep South Tuesday, let’s not forget the coldest air so far this season will blow in here tomorrow night and Sunday. Some places across far North Alabama could be below freezing from Sunday morning until sometime Thursday morning. Lows will drop into the 10-18 degree range over North Alabama Monday morning.

15 YEARS AGO: On this date in 2011, Alabama experienced a generational tornado outbreak. A total of 62 tornadoes touched town over the northern 2/3 of the state. We will never forget the 252 lives lost that horrible day.

Hi Jacob… looks like you need some attention, so I will play. At least ten tornadoes with multiple fatalities across Alabama yesterday and last night. This video is just one example of what people dealt with. I would suggest you might be happy one of these tornadoes didn’t hit your home, and nobody in your family was one of those fatalities. Being a social media troll isn’t a good look for you or your family.

Eventually both the southbound and northbound lanes of Interstate 85 near the 46 mile marker were closed while Troopers with the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency’s (ALEA) Highway Patrol Division along with the animal’s owner conducted a recovery of the kangaroo. The animal has now been recovered, and the roadway is back open. The kangaroo was not injured in the crash. Video from Austin Price
