Residents of Alabama, particularly in Clarke, Washington, Choctaw, Greene, Hale, and Marengo counties, should prepare for minor flooding as the Tombigbee River near Leroy and Coffeeville Dam, and the Black Warrior River at Selden Lock and Dam are under flood warnings. The Tombigbee River is expected to cause pastureland flooding and potentially affect low-lying roads, with residents advised to move livestock to higher ground. The Black Warrior River's rise could lead to pasture and woodland flooding and isolate residents if secondary roads near Lock 5 park and Sandpiper Road become inundated. These conditions are predicted to persist until March 18, with the Black Warrior River forecasted to recede below flood stage by March 16. It's crucial for locals to stay alert, follow evacuation orders if issued, and avoid flooded areas for safety.
