Big Storms in the Birmingham Metro
Widespread showers and thunderstorms have developed across Alabama this evening. Some very strong storms are impacting the Metro area with very dangerous lightning, torrential rains and gusty winds. None of these storms are currently severe, but they could be rather strong. Flash flooding could become a serious threat with the storms. The more intense storms are across the southern sections of the city and they are making rush hour a headache. Interstates 65, 459, 20 and 59 are being impacted as well as Highways 150, 31 and 280. Some of the cities seeing the worst of these storms are Bessemer, McCalla, Hoover, Homewood, Pelham, Helena, Alabaster and Calera. This complex of storms is moving to the south.
