Very early on this Thursday morning:
NWS/Huntsville issues a Severe Thunderstorm Warning for Northwest Lauderdale County in Extreme Northwest Alabama until 4:30 am. This based on a storm 8 miles northwest of Iuka, Miss., and moving northeast at 45 mph.
Down in Southwest Alabama, heavy showers and storms were moving northeast across Baldwin and Washington County. Earlier a Tornado Warning was posted for South Washington County.
Actually some tropical moisture from the disturbed weather area over the Southwest Gulf got caught up in the flow and enhanced the storms now in progress over Southwest Alabama.
Alabama is under a slight risk of severe weather today and tonight as outlined by the Storm prediction Center. There will be redevelopment later today and overnight.
At 4 this morning other showers were developing across Central Alabama and some of those were approaching the Birmingham area.
