One heck of a UH track there

That UDH track reminds me of the EF4 tornado a couple years ago.

The sun is out here west of Atlanta.

He's also live on youtube.

Found it. Thank you!

Is the plan still for this first wave to come through with redevelopment on the back end?

 

[kcyalater]

i have to think enough instability is going to be a problem once this rain mass gets finished working things over.

 

[CheeselandSkies]

Man, that 16Z HRRR is mean, mean, mean.

James Spann is probably one of the few local TV meteorologists in the country whose live long-form severe weather coverage is tuned in to for entertainment purposes by people around the country nowhere near the Birmingham DMA.

As I last checked, models still seemed pretty adamant about redevelopment overnight.

 

[Justin Hindman]

I’m out chasing, in Brent for this storm that’s recycling

So far I think so.

The storm that prompted a TOR earlier is wrapping up again. Another storm to the SW that looks suspicious.

 

[Clancy]

TOR is back.

Donut hole on radar

Robust couplet + BWER.

the cell just to the northwest of marion has absolutely exploded over the last few frames. yikes.

 

[KevinH]

If you're a betting man, put your money on a tornado warning in Calera, Alabama later. Seems like every storm in that area goes crazy near Calera.

And look at that… a TOR just to the SW of Calera, AL….

SMH

 

[kcyalater]

uniontown cell getting in on the party with a TOR too

 

[ashtonlemleywx]

And look at that… a TOR just to the SW of Calera, AL….

SMH

Its almost automatic over there. I have a friend that lives in Calera and we joke about it everytime a storm enters Alabama.

All jokes aside, I hope nothing bad happens.

In case you missed it, several AL counties were added to WW 7.
