Tropical Storm Claudette is expected to bring severe weather to the Panhandle this weekend. Residents in these areas should have a way to receive weather warnings, follow all local orders and monitor local news outlets for updates.

⛈ Tropical Storm #Claudette is expected to bring flash flooding & tornado threats to the Panhandle. Remember: It is NEVER safe to drive or walk into flooded waters. If you approach a flooded road turn around, don’t drown.
