Strong Storms Occurring Across the Southern Half of Central Alabama
It is an active late afternoon across the southern half of Central Alabama as we have numerous storms ongoing, some of which are producing gusty winds and small hail. We currently have a grand total of 7 active significant weather advisories and 3 severe thunderstorm warnings south of the I-20 corridor all of the way down to the I-10 corridor in Alabama. All of this activity is pushing to the northeast.
The 3:00 pm update from the Storm Prediction Center has a Level 1 Marginal Risk for severe storms for nearly all of North Central Alabama through the rest of the day. Instability is quite strong over the area and a warm front moving northward is providing the needed lift for these storms to form.
Strong thunderstorms are possible across Central Alabama through 8:00 pm. Storms will be most numerous south and east. The strongest storms will produce isolated damaging wind gusts to 60 mph and nickel size hail.
