Jason Simpson about ten minutes ago:
I was a little confused earlier this morning when they pulled the enhanced risk back to the south and now they've pulled it back up to the north ...

All I know is that I'm seeing a lot of people on the local met's social media calling "bust" because of that and because we haven't seen much out of Mississippi this morning.

[JayF]

That goes along with how the line stalled, but I would pay attention as this line starts to move again. The line could go severe quickly.

Yep the merging happened and they’re organizing.

 

[JayF]

meanwhile cape is surging northward

 

[Kory]

Tornado warning for Greene and Sumter.

 

[JayF]

Tornado warning for Greene and Sumter.

Also Pickens

 

[Equus]

Still dark and overcast here but that Pickens/Greene segment concerning me that the intense advection might render the lack of sun moot and put me back in the danger zone here for bows and QLCS tors coming up. Certainly still warm and humid... 73/66 with very strong SSE wind

 

[Kory]

75/66 in Tuscaloosa!

 

[JayF]

The line is starting bow eastward as it enters into Lawrence county.

 

[JayF]

And the Arab Weather station transmitter is down again.

 

[Kory]

That’s a wicked looking QLCS.

 

[Richardjacks]

the risk of a strong QLCS tornado is increasing and will likely max out somewhere around I65 and remain near or south of I59

 

[Evan]

TDS west of Carrollton?

 

[MikeP]

Tornado on the ground
