My girlfriend lives on Smith Lake... she is not answering texts on her cell phone or her lan line... :(


Don't assume the worst. She might not be getting them. Cell service there is probably hit or miss, and phone lines are probably down too.

New TVS approaching Hamilton, AL. Looks a lot like the same profile as the Cullman storm.

Looking at WAFF's radar, the Cullman tornado has almost completely detached from it's parent storm...looks insane.

Reports just in say the Cullman tornado is still on the ground, approaching Arab.

I held my breathe as I saw that tower in Cullman get wiped out. My solemn prayers go out to all those affected today with this devastation!

New tornado warning for Cullman, Marshall, Madison and Morgan is not just a tornado warning but a tornado emergency.

Is it just me, or is that a debris ball showing now on the tornado that went through Cullman?
