J.B.’s son Steve lives in Rainbow City. He estimates several wind gusts 45-50 mph, lots of lightning and one brief power outage. Thos storm now extends from south of Rainbow City to north of Ohatchee to north of Jacksonvile.

Moderate rain now covers much of Sumter County, extending down into Chocwat County. A heavy storm is in Greene County southwest of Eutaw. Lots of lightning with this one and some very heavy rain.

The rest of Alabama is quiet at this hour.
