The line of intense thunderstorms at 5:40 am extended from near Huntsville (not as strong on the north end) southward to near Oneonta, Springville, Wilsonville (East Shelby County) to West Coosa County west of Rockford.

Moving east…maybe a bit faster than earlier.

NWS has cleared these additional counties from Tornado Watch:

Fayette
Hale
Marengo

Although Jefferson County not cleared yet, the line of storms has moved eastward completely out of the county. The Tornado Warning for Jefferson County expired at 5:15. We did not receive any reports of damage.
