Our storms are congealing into a solid line tonight over Central Alabama.
Maybe we left them out too long. It tends to happen when you don’t put them back in the refrigerator.
It extends from Jemsion in Chilton County to Talladega Springs to Sylacauga to near Ashland and Lineville.
The line is slowly translating southward. Very slowly. So we will see some training of cells over the next few hours. This means repeated rounds of heavy rain, lightning and hail. Winds could be strong where the updrafts find a way to translate the high upper level winds to the surface.
NEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING for southern Shelby, northern Chilton, Coosa and southern Talladega Counties. It goes until 815 p.m. It joins another warning for southies along the line to the east including Clay County.
The Randolph County storm is in Georgia now and the TORNADO WARNING is no longer necessary.
The tornado watch is being converted to a severe thunderstorm watch.
The watch ii still in effect for Autauga, Bibb, Chilton, Clay, Coosa, Dallas, Elmore, Greene, Hale, Lowndes, Marengo, Montgomery, Perry, Randolph, Shelby, Sumter, Talladega, and Tallapoosa Counties just til 8 p.m.
The severe thunderstorm watch is extended until 10 p.m. for Barbour, Bullock, Chambers, Lee, Macon, Pike, and Russell Counties.
