Leading edge of the thunderstorms is producing some fairly gnarly-looking clouds… This was the view around 3PM from the Monroeville campus of @CoastalAlaCC. Thanks to Rebecca Andrews for the view! ⛈ @NWSMobile pic.twitter.com/bDqI9DcIwc

Torrential downpours of rain are happening across Monroe County from Beatrice to Peterman to Monroeville and Mexia.
These storms will move into Frisco City, Excel, Megargal, and Uriah shortly. Very heavy rain and quite a bit of lightning! pic.twitter.com/agB8PhFxWC

The Storm Prediction Center is not particularly bullish on issuing a new severe thunderstorm watch (40% chance) as storms are expected to gradually weaken over the next few hours… pic.twitter.com/PbnFnSCtaL

ALL CLEAR BEHIND THE LINE OF STORMS… We can now give a severe weather “all clear” to several communities that are now northwest of the line of storms. These communities are done with the severe weather risk for today: Thomasville, Grove Hill, Fulton, Scyrene, Zimco, Bashi, Campbell, Woods Bluff, Coffeeville, Chatom, Yarbo, and all parts of Choctaw and Marengo counties in west Alabama.
The risk continues for areas along and southeast of the line of storms where the atmosphere remains unstable. Watching radar trends carefully…
