Showers and storms have become fairly numerous across Alabama this afternoon. With the exception of the rain event earlier this week, this is the best coverage we have seen on radar in several days.
By far the best coverage and overall intensity is over West Central Alabama from Sumter, Marengo, Hale, Dallas over into Perry Counties.
Cherokee and DeKalb Counties in East Alabama have a decent concentration.
Storms are over parts of Talldega, St. Clair and Shelby Counties. The best cell is approaching Leeds with another going over Logan Martin Lake near Riverside.
Another concentration is over Walker and Winston Counties. The best storm is approaching Arley.
Storms over Tuscaloosa County are crossing I-59 between Cottondale and Coaling.
In the Birmingham Metro, a nice new cell had formed near Adamsville along US-78.
All motion is north and northeast.
Hope you see a cooling shower this afternoon…but look out for the lightning.
