Watching Storms to the Southwest

Central Alabama saw round one of the rain earlier today. This evening, we are watching for the chance of round two. A cluster of showers and storms is lifting north across Mississippi and West Alabama. At this time, they are affecting portions of Greene, Sumter, Marengo, and Wilcox counties.

None of these storms are severe currently, but they could certainly pack a punch. They are producing gusty winds, very heavy rainfall, lots of lightning, and some small hail will be possible. These storms will continue to track towards the north over the next few hours, and could certainly impact Tuscaloosa, and perhaps Birmingham later this evening. These storms, once the sun sets, should begin to slowly wind down.
