Scattered strong storms have developed across Central Alabama this afternoon.

There is a nice cluster of storms over Clay, Randolph and Tallapoosa Counties of East Alabama. The strongest is northwest of Wedowee.

Another group of storms extends from Etowah County down to Steele in St. Clair County down through southern parts of the Birmingham Metro. The strongest storm of all is southeast of Chelsea in Shelby County.

There are several developing storms across Shelby County at this time.

Other developing storms are over northwestern Jefferson County up into southern Culman County near Smith Lake.

In South Central Alabama, there is a strong storm northeast of Marion.

Be alert for the lightning. That is the greatest threat from these storms. They will also have very heavy rain in spots along with wind gusts to 40 mph.
