Storms over Lamar, Pickens and northern Tuscaloosa Counties right now are already fairly heavy now and will increase in intensity. These storms will affect western and southern Jefferson into northern Shelby Counties. They may not become severe but will produce gusty winds, lightning, heavy rain and possibly small hail.
