Tuscaloosa sits on the Black Warrior River in west-central Alabama, a region that receives over 53 inches of annual rainfall and lies within a zone of frequent severe thunderstorm and tornado activity. The Black Warrior River can rise dramatically after heavy rainfall across its extensive watershed, threatening riverside neighborhoods with prolonged inundation. The 2011 tornado outbreak devastated portions of the city and the subsequent reconstruction exposed many structures' vulnerability to both wind-driven water intrusion and foundation moisture issues.
