SUMMARY: A new bill, HB 445, regulating THC products derived from hemp is awaiting Governor Kay Ivey’s signature in Alabama. The bill limits serving sizes to 10 milligrams of THC and total package content to 40 milligrams. This poses a major challenge for businesses like The Green Lady Dispensary in Huntsville, where products typically contain 200 to 1000 milligrams per package, threatening closures. Manufacturers face costly and time-consuming equipment changes before the January 2026 deadline. While lawmakers support removing unregulated products, some business owners and advocates urge the governor to veto the bill, calling for more industry understanding and time.

SUMMARY: A severe storm struck Dauphin Island Saturday morning, causing widespread damage. The busiest intersection flooded, and at Captain Snapper’s Marina Bar and Grill, the storm blew out the back wall, knocked over an air conditioner, and caved in the kitchen roof, halting business. Two boats were pulled from docks, one heavily damaged. Despite the destruction, no injuries were reported. On the island’s east side, tents and tables were scattered, a tree fell on a boat and porch, and on the west, a telecom tower snapped, trees toppled, and a solar crosswalk sign was knocked down. Cleanup efforts began promptly.

Damage was reported around the marina and at a few other sites around the island.
