Let’s focus on a severe thunderstorm over extreme NE CUllman and northern Blount Counties….

It has tops to nearly 50,000 feet.

It has produced wind damage…including a porch ripper from a home at Baileyton and a buiilding unroofed at Hulaco. It is producing hail, perhaps as large as the size of ping pong balls.

It is moving ENE toward Snead…Douglas and perhaps Guntersville. It will eventually affect Albertville.

Get off Lake Guntersville now.

Everyone in the path of this dangerous storm should go to a substantial shelter.

Cullman and Blount under warnings. Marshall will be coming up. NE Marshall under a warning from another storm that is near Grant.
