    Okay…this is STRANGE…you have areas to the North, South, East and West of Atmore that has been included in the “locations impacted” and yet Atmore is not listed…one could conclude that because Atmore is not stated, then Atmore is “okay”…or one could just as easily conclude that because all areas around Atmore will be impacted, Atmore will be impacted as well.

    The National Weather Service is not normally this vague…
