[Richardjacks]

Richard, what are your thoughts for places like Jefferson county and south?

I think it will start firing further south...I don't buy the hrrr

 

[NorthGaWeather]

The main HP cell has kind of separated itself from the convection a little.

 

[Evan]

Storm trying to form on Walker/Fayette line. Nothing but a puny dollop right now, but let's watch it.

 

[barcncpt44]

Wow, I hope folks in Ardmore Alabama/Tennessee are in cover.

Per scanner traffic, tornado on the ground in Battleground in Cullman County near Hwy 157

 

[warneagle]

Man, look at that donut hole.

 

[akt1985]

One has to wonder if there may be a flash flood threat developing over the Bankhead Forest with the cells starting to train over the same areas

 

[Casie]

Storm south of Oakman bears watching. It's ahead of the line and could give us a heads up on what to look for in Bham metro. It's intensified pretty good the last couple of sweeps.

 

[Equus]

We're back to blob watching like April 5th ironically. Did look like things were slooowly starting to fire to the SW finally, but they haven't really grown much yet.

Likely a tornado, possibly

Storm trying to form on Walker/Fayette line. Nothing but a puny dollop right now, but let's watch it.

Not even really worth mentioning. Any event where there is one of these big, upscale growing MCS nearby, any blip that fires in the immediate area is going to get choked out or absorbed by the MCS in the vicinity. We can watch nearby blips all night and they won't go dominant as long as the convective mode stays the way it is. Seen this so many times.

If HRRR is right, the public will hammer Spann, etc. Not fair, but the average person is not into weather like we are. They will not understand going from the threat of violent tornadoes and schools and businesses closing to not even a rain shower. It will be brutal.

 

[CheeselandSkies]

Elkmont-Ardmore storm with its strongest velocity couplet yet, first clear (to me) CC drop and a reported tornado ironically right as the reflectivity signature appears to go to junk.

 

[Bamamuscle]

Will these things wrap up even more once they cross I-65?

 

[NorthBamaWX]

 

[craig827]

dime size hail in Haleyville

 

[Daryl]

[CheeselandSkies]

Hazel Green is in trouble from that state line storm.

 

[Gail]

Mississippi counties shaved from the tornado watch.
