The severe thunderstorm over Etowah County extends from near Attalla back to just north of Steele.

The warning for St. Clair was cancelled as the storm has moved out of the county.

It continues for Etowah until 3:45 p.m.

The storm has been pulsing up and down in intensity. Right now it appears weaker.

It produced pea sized hail in the Steele area according to the fire department there.

REST OF THE STATE…
…Strong storm in NE Franklin County…southwest of Town Creek…
…Still a strong storm west of Eutaw in Greene County…but not severe…
…Still a cluster of storms over eastern Calhoun and Cleburne Counties in East Alabama…
…Storm developing on the Tuscaloosa/Bibb County line northwest of Centreville…

More showers and storms will continue to develop through the afternoon hours and last into this evening. Hail will be the main threat, but there could also be a damaging wind threat with the bigger storms. Lightning and very heavy rainfal will also be a problem.
