STRONG TO SEVERE HAIL STORMS TRACKING SOUTHEAST… While we only have ONE severe thunderstorm moving southeast across south Alabama, the other storms on radar this evening are quite strong. Even if a storm doesn’t feature a warning, it probably is producing at least small hail. The strongest storm as of 8:50PM is clearly the one right over Excel and Halls Crossroads. This storm is about to cross into southeast Conecuh County near Repton. We encourage NO driving on US84 west of Belleville all the way to Monroeville right now as the core of this storm moves by. Same thing on Alabama Highway 41 between Repton and Range. NO driving on that stretch of Highway for the next 30-45 minutes.
STRONG STORMS… We’re also monitoring a strong storm in southern Washington County pushing into areas near McIntosh and Calvert along US43. Smaller, newer storms are developing near Barlow Bend, Chrysler, Evergreen, Brooklyn, Owassa, and Damascus. Another particularly strong storm is happening near Oaky Streak in southern Butler County.
Storms will continue to produce hail over the next hour or so. A gradual weakening trend is expected to commence within the next 1-2 hours as storms move southeast. We’ll have further updates as needed here in the RZW app.
