How It Looks at 9:45 pm

Only scattered mostly light showers at 9:45 pm over a big percentage of North and Central Alabama. Strong thunderstorms limited to Extreme South and Southeast Alabama.

The Tornado Watch continues for 21 counties in South and Southeast Alabama until midnight, CST.

Still looking like a past-midnight event for the north half of the state...maybe even as late as daylight Monday morning.

Development beginning to take shape to the west. A line developing over North and West Mississippi but so far not strong at all.

A troubling thought...the NWS (Storm Prediction Center) is thinking of extending the moderate risk area westward to cover more of Alabama Monday.

As it stands now, the moderate risk area covers Georgia but only the east edge of Alabama.

Stay tuned...

J.B.,

How far west are they looking at. and are they seeing some strong parameters that is fueling their thinking? I assume there are since they are talking about it.

Not sure...but my guess it will be extended to the BHM area...maybe even further west. Not good.
