The activity is not severe, but strong enough to warrant a significant weather alert in southern Fayette, NE Lamar, and extreme Northwest Tuscaloosa counties.
One hour rainfall amounts have exceeded 2″ in parts of Pickens and southern Fayette Counties.
The strongest part of the storms will pass across southern Fayette, extreme northern Tuscaloosa County.
