Spann shared a video showing a possible funnel cloud.

Rotation east of Orrville/SW of Selma is tightening.
Edit: Small cell east of Uniontown is also looking pretty impressive.

so far we have little activity reaching the ground in bama, thankfully.

This is likely going to be one of those "Whack-A-Mole"-type of days.

These cells are cycling like crazy. Not envying the BMX warning coordinators today.

Wondering if this rain over central Alabama will really dampen the threat later today.

Would hope so, though models weren't too crazy on the idea of the day's convection messing with instability. Hopefully will at least limit the threat at least for the the NW AL area for this afternoon.

Sneaky storm near west blocton. It's starting to wrap up. Keep a eye on that one.

Anyone having data delays using Iowa State polling using GRevelX?

I’d like to know the probs they will assign

Storm near Selma/Sardis needs warning

Haven't had any so far but I definitely wouldn't be surprised by it.

 

[Clancy]

Neat hook over Sardis.

 

[KevinH]

Let’s not sleep on SE AL either

 

[UncleJuJu98]

Hrrr is still on track with previous thinking. Shows a lot of supercells taking off in the next few hours . We will see.

I'm pretty skeptical. Considering the big mass of rain but who knows

Christopher Jackson has a beautiful wide view of the storm outside of Selma right now on his live feed. https://livestormchasing.com/map

Looks like there was some damage in Perry County earlier:
