The city of Prattville plans to still host Saturday's 8th annual Mardi Gras parade, but at a different time and route, according to a release from the city.Because of Saturday's severe weather forecast, the parade is now scheduled to begin at 11 a.m., instead of the original 3 p.m. start time.
In addition, the parade route has been changed to ensure the parade beats the afternoon storms predicted for the area.
The report says the parade will now begin at the Autauga County Courthouse, wind its way through downtown and end at the Stanley Jensen stadium.
Local food vendors will also be setting up early in the Partners in Pediatrics parking lot in downtown Prattville. Their booths should be open by 10 a.m.
The city will continue to monitor the weather and may cancel the parade if necessary.
