Wouldn’t be surprised if folks in Choctaw, Marengo, and northern Clarke counties hear some thunder over the next hour as a storm moves in from Mississippi…
Right now, no warnings anywhere close by. Scattered showers continue locally. pic.twitter.com/4Nn2OocpaW

Scattered showers will continue to be possible across the local area in the hours ahead. Loud/strong storms to our north will gradually weaken in the hours ahead. pic.twitter.com/6LIFSLGSjk

With a well-documented TDS up to ~15,000 ft and a peak rotational velocity of 68 kt, the tornado that impacted Fultondale, AL earlier tonight was likely in the mid-EF3 intensity range, with a peak wind around 145 mph by my estimates. Daylight and damage surveys will tell the rest pic.twitter.com/779mmBveB7
