If you are going to bust a forecast…this is the way to do it…
I expected isolated storms across Alabama today, nuch like yesterday, but they have blossomed this afternoon over the western half of the area.
At 6:15 p.m., small, but heavy thunderstorms were scattered over southern Walker County, northeastern Fayette, eastern Tuscaloosa, western Jefferson and Bibb Counties.
They are moving north at 15 mph.
The heaviest storms are crossing I-59 northeast of Vance and south of Oakman in Walker County. Other notable ones are south of Eldridge in Walker County, southwest of Russellville in Franklin County and near Trafford in northern Jefferson County.
A storm was instensifying near West Blocton.
They are pulse storms that will weaken as quickly as they develop, but hopefully some areas will get some decent brief heavy rainfall.
Things are looking good for Tuesday…keep your fingers crossed…and if today is any sign…maybe we will have scattered storms tomorrow.
Nothing is threatening downtown Birmingham and City Stages.
