A large mass of moderate rain covers much of Alabama tonight. The heaviest rain extends from Gadsden to Vance to Prattville to Wedowee and into Georgia.
Some thunder is mixed in. The storms are elevated, so they make for some dramatic booming thunder.
Down south, a powerful line of storms is moving across South Central Alabama. The heaviest part extends from Perry County through Dallas County, into Wilcox County.
A powerful bow echo is racing across eastern Wilcox County towards Montgomery. Severe thunderstorm warnings are in effect for Lowndes, Wilcox and southern Dallas Counties.
