Thunderstorms have decreased in coverage if not actual numbers across North and Central Alabama in the last hour and one half…
Four main sectors now…
Northwest Alabama…
Couple of storms over Lauderdale County…
Jefferson/Bibb/Shelby/Tuscaloosa…
Thunderstorms are in an arc from west of Hueytown to extreme NW Shelby County. This line is moving east. Bessemer is in line for these storms. Along the I-65 Corridor, places from Alabaster to Bluff Park and Homewood will experience them. They will then head toward highway 280, stretching as far north as Mountain Brook.
East Alabama…
Storms are embedded in a larger rain area that covers parts of Clay… Randolph… Tallapoosa… and Chambers Counties. The most notable storm is passing near Wedowee.
South Central Alabama…
Decent storm 15 miles WSW of Billingsley on the Chilton/Autauga County line. Moving SE in general direction of Prattville.
Be alert for any storms that approach your location. Go inside while the storm passes. Remember…if you can hear thunder…you are in danger of being struck by lightning. Don’t forget…the first lightning strike from a storm won’t give you the chance to hear thunder first, so look for threatening clouds. The heavier showers will have torrential rains and the stronger storms gusty winds.
