The new Storm Prediction Center severe weather outlook has shifted the moderate risk a little southward, as we expected. It encompasses southeastern Alabama now, from the Auburn-Montgoimery area down to Evergreen and points south.
The rest of the state is under a slight risk outlook.
A tornado watch continues until 4 p.m. CST for North Alabama. A second tornado watch continues until 9 p.m. CST for West and South Alabama.
A tornado warning is in effect until 11:15 a.m. for eastern Elmore for a possible tornado indicated by radar 6 miles SE of Wetumpka. It is moving NE toward Eclectic and Kent.
Severe thunderstorm warnings are in effect for Pickens and Winson Counties until 11 am.
The main line of storms extends from Lawrence County through Winston, Western Walker, Fayette and into Pickens County. It continues moving quickly east. It is accompanied by very heavy rains, strong gusty winds, lightning, some hail and the possibility of damaging winds or small tornadoes. Be alert as it approaches.
