Summary: On Thursday night, a weak upper-level trough is forecasted to move into the region.  The trough coupled with moderate amounts of PVA could lead to enough destabilization for showers & thunderstorms to form along the coast.  As Thursday night turns into Friday morning, the main area of destabilization is forecasted to move North, allowing storms to propagate North throughout the morning hours on Friday.  These storms and showers could stick around through most of the morning and into the afternoon on Friday but should die off by evening.  On Saturday & Sunday, the upper-level trough will have moved off to the Northeast and NVA will move into the area, stabilizing the atmosphere. We will continue to update throughout the week.

Talladega Superspeedway, nicknamed “’Dega”, and formerly named Alabama International Motor Speedway (AIMS) from 1969 to 1989, is a motorsports complex located north of Talladega, Alabama. It is located on the former Anniston Air Force Base in the small city of Lincoln. A tri-oval, the track was constructed in 1969 by the International Speedway Corporation, a business controlled by the France Family. As of 2021, the track hosts the NASCAR Cup Series, NASCAR Xfinity Series, NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, and ARCA Menards Series. Talladega is the longest NASCAR oval, with a length of 2.66 miles (4.281 km), compared to the Daytona International Speedway, which is 2.5 miles (4.0 km) long. The total peak capacity of Talladega is around 175,000 spectators, with the main grandstand capacity being about 80,000.
