Thunderstorms are firing tonight over South Central Mississippi along a frontal boundary.

They are lifting northeastward toward West Central Alabama.

The strongest storms are northwest of Philadelphia, Mississippi. Other strong ones are southwest of Meridian.

I am not sure if they will make it very far into Alabama, but they could hold together enough for a good lightning show, some very heavy rainfall and strong gusty winds.

Our western friends should not be surprised if they hear some thunder during the overnight.

No significant severe weather is anticipated, although a couple of warnings aren’t out of the questions.
