A sharp line of strong storms extends from New Hope to Vinemont to east of Arley to Berry. It becomes more broken to the southwest, but has been trying to fill in over the past hour over Pickens County and back into eastern Mississippi.
The line will be accompanied by intense rainfall for a short period, some lightning and strong gusty winds to 40 mph. Moderate to occasionally heavy rain covers much of Northwest Alabama at this hour behind the main line.
The line is moving east at about 25 mph. It will reach at least northern sections of the Birmingham area around 6:30.
Over South Central Alabama, storms extend from Lowndes County through Northwest Butler into Monroe and Conecuh Counties.
No watches or warnings in Alabama right now. An isolated severe even can’t be ruled out, so remain vigilant until the main lines moves through.
