The shower activity now has moved north of the unstable air mass that was allowing some of the heavier cells to rotate and to bring out a few surprise tornado warnings. At this point, the higher instability remains along and south of the warm front over the southwestern counties of Central Alabama.

Showers and storms continue over the western parts of Mississippi in an unstable air mass where a couple of tornado warnings are in effect. That activity will eventually move into the western parts of Central Alabama later tonight.

A Slight Risk continues for the west and southwestern parts of the area which includes the cities of Carrollton, Tuscaloosa, Livingston, Eutaw, Greensboro, Demopolis, and Marion.

A Marginal Risk continues east of that that includes the central and east-central parts of the area, including Hamilton, Birmingham, Hoover, Clanton, Selma, and Montgomery.

A Tornado Watch continues until 10 pm for Bibb, Dallas, Fayette, Greene, Hale, Lamar, Marengo, Perry, Pickens, Sumter, and Tuscaloosa counties.
