A complex of strong storms is moving across northern Jefferson County from the top down to the western sections of the City of Birmingham.
It is moving ESE and will affect much of the County except for the southwestern section from about Bessemer southwestward.
A significant weather alert has been issued for Jefferson County until 4 p.m.
Expect very heavy rain, deadly lightning and gusty winds as these storms pass.
A small but potent little storm is just south of Leeds. This caused some torrential rains and bad lightning in the Crestwood Area of Birmingham over to Rex Lake Road earlier as reported by our audience. I can hear the booming thunder still from that storm here in Trussville, some ten miles away.
