A large area of showers and thunderstorms is moving eastward across North and Central Alabama tonight…
The activity extends from Jackson and DeKalb Counties in the Northeast through Marshall, Cullman and Blount Counties through Walker and NW Jefferson County and then into Fayette, Pickens and Tuscaloosa Counties.
The strongest storm was just west of Tuscaloosa.
Other notable storms were just southeast of Fayette, near Oakman in Walker County and just west of Adamsville in western Jefferson County.
Rain is quite heavy over much of West Alabama to the west of Birmingham.
Bring it on!
