Showers are scattered across the northern half of Alabama this afternoon…
A few of them have grown into storms.
The most notable is in Bibb County north and east of the Centreville/Brent area, extending south from West Blocton. Good bit of lightning in this system.
Storms are forming in the Montevallo/Wilton area.
The storm west of Hartselle in Morgan County is growing.
Watch out for a blossoming storm near Springville.
Otherwise…check your radar…the look changes with every new volume scan.
Showers and storms will continue to bubble up through the afternoon hours. They won’t be going anywhere fast, and by the time they form, t hey will quickly rain themselves out.
Watch out for deadly lightning, brief heavy rains and strong gusty winds that can do damage, like yesterday in Gardendale.
It’s hot. Temperatures are in the upper 90s. It was 98F at Tuscaloosa and 99F at Montgomery. 97F at the Birmingham Airport.
