The Doppler radar returns across Alabama look like a good case of the measles this afternoon.
The airmass over the state is moist and unstable and there is plenty of spin thanks to the remnant low of Fay to our west.
Consequently, scattered heavy showers and storms have developed. They are putting down some brief periods of intense rainfall. A feeder band extends across Lamar, Fayette, walker and into western Jefferson County.
With all the spin, there is also the possibility of tornadoes. A tornado watch continues for much of Central Alabama until 9 p.m.
