Plain English

What these alerts mean

A warning means the hazard is happening or about to; a watch means conditions favour it; an advisory is a lesser hazard still worth planning around.

Rip Current Statement

Rip currents that can pull swimmers offshore are expected. Swim near a lifeguard and know how to escape a rip.

Wind Advisory

Sustained winds of 30 mph or more, or gusts to 45 mph, are expected. Use caution driving high-profile vehicles.

High Surf Warning

Hurricane Warning

Hurricane conditions (sustained winds of 74 mph or more) are expected within 36 hours. Complete preparations and follow evacuation orders.

Storm Surge Warning

Life-threatening inundation from rising water moving inland from the shoreline is expected. Evacuate if ordered.

Coastal Flood Advisory

Minor coastal flooding is expected, usually around high tide. Expect water on low-lying roads near the shore.

Special Weather Statement

A heads-up about conditions that do not meet warning or advisory criteria but still deserve attention, such as a strong storm, patchy fog or a brief burst of snow.

Flood Watch

Conditions are favourable for flooding. Have a plan in case a warning is issued.

Flood Warning

Flooding of rivers, streams or low-lying areas is occurring or expected. Avoid flooded roads and monitor river levels.

Minor flooding of streets, streams or low-lying areas is expected. Expect ponding on roads and use caution when driving.

Questions

About Baldwin County alerts

How do I get Baldwin County weather alerts on my iPhone?

Install Forecast Bar, add Baldwin County as a location, and turn on severe weather alerts. Every NWS warning, watch and advisory for Baldwin County then arrives as a push notification at the moment of issue, with Critical Alerts available for the most dangerous warnings. Forecast Bar also runs on iPad, Apple Watch, Mac and Apple TV.

Where do these alerts come from?

From the National Weather Service alert feed (api.weather.gov). NWS issues alerts by county and by forecast zone; this page lists every product that names Baldwin County. Forecast Bar checks the feed continuously and this page refreshes within a few minutes of a change.

What is the difference between a watch, a warning and an advisory?

A warning means the hazard is occurring, imminent or very likely: act now. A watch means conditions are favourable for it to develop: prepare and stay informed. An advisory covers a hazard that is less serious than a warning but can still cause real inconvenience or danger if you are not ready for it.

Yes. /weather-alerts/al/baldwin-county.json returns the active alerts, the last 30 days and the 12-month counts for Baldwin County, refreshed every minute. Please cache responses and credit National Weather Service as the source.
