## Resource

Central Alabama took a brutal hit from Monday’s thunderstorms—downed trees, power outages affecting over 77,000 homes, and treacherous roads everywhere. Emergency crews scrambled as winds whipped through saturated soil, sending trees crashing onto Marsh Mountain Road, Taylor’s Ferry, and Lakeshore Drive. Officials begged residents to stay off the roads unless absolutely necessary, warning that even moderate winds could bring sudden blockages. Stay alert, heed alerts, and brace for Mother Nature’s next move—she’s got a nasty surprise ready. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
