I think the majority of them are, Huntsville city, Madison County and City (plus many more) all are if I recall seeing correctly. I am confused in some ways because the storms SHOULD be out of the way by then, but I realize if we have severe weather there could be no power, downed lines and trees etc.

After seeing how the storms are firing in Lousiana, what’s the consensus for northern MS and central TN? Seems like the current storms are stronger than previously expected
 
I've never seen projected tornado strength denoted in an MD before, other than in generalized terms ("conditions are supportive of strong-violent tornadoes," for example, or the use of the PDS wording to imply higher probabilities of stronger tornadoes). As a weather nerd I love more detail in real-time information, but I'm not sure I like the idea of projecting tornado strength in a publicly available product (kind of like TV mets speculating on the EF-rating based on live video of a tornado in progress). You want anyone in the polygon to treat any tornado warning with equal urgency and be in their basement/safe room.
