Storms are over Northwest Alabama this afternoon, extending from western Winston County near Double Springs, back through much of Marion County, including Hamilton, down south through much of Lamar County.

A severe thunderstorm warning is in effect for Monroe County MS. It produced golfball sized hail at the radar site north of Columbus. This storm will move into Lamar County, affecting Vernon and Millport.

The storms have weakened a bit as the atmosphere over Alabama is not as conducive for severe weather. There will be gusty winds and hail, but severe reports should be limited over the next few hours.

Lightning will be a real problem through the evening though. Be aware of the weather if you will be out and about on this spring Friday evening.
