New SPC MD emphasizing corridor for tornadic activity.
 
Mesoscale Discussion 0261
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0445 PM CDT Thu Mar 25 2021

Areas affected...central AL

Concerning...Tornado Watch 50...

Valid 252145Z - 252245Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 50 continues.

SUMMARY...A corridor for a long track intense to potentially violent
tornado is expected to maximize through the next hour across central
AL.

DISCUSSION...An intense tornadic supercell located over Hale County
will likely remain unimpeded as it moves to the east-northeast
across central AL during the next 1-2 hours. The near-storm
environment is currently primed across central AL with 0-1 km SRH at
600 m2/s2 per observed storm motion according to the KBMX VAD.
Given the very moist/strongly sheared environment, expecting a
long-track intense (EF3+) and potentially violent tornado to
continue east-northeast and reach the I-65 corridor over the next
hour or so.
