The NWS continues to slide the severe thunderstorm warning eastward ahead of a strong line of storms (really showers) that is pushing eastward across Central Alabama tonight.
The new warning goes until 11:45 p.m. and includes eastern Jefferson and NE Shelby County.
The line extends from Turssville to Chelsea in Shelby County.
It is accompanied by brief torrential rains and very strong winds. There is will a small chance of a spin up tornado, although no rotation is indicated on radar now.
Be alert as it passes your location for trees that could be blown down on homes or structures as well as other wind damage. You should go to a safe part of your home until it passes over.
