They are already forming early this afternoon, mostly over Central and South Alabama south of the Birmingham area. At 1:00 p.m. they were located in these areas:
WEST ALABAMA
Perry
Hale
Sumter
Marengo
EAST ALABAMA
Tallapoosa
South Clay
Chambers
Lee
A few thunderstorms were also developing in Central Shelby County. That county has been a magnet for big thunderstorms lately.
Probably the most numerous storms extended from south of Ashland southeastward to near Phenix City and adjacent Columbus, Ga.
A stalled front is located somewhere over North-Central Alabama, we believe in the general vicinity of Birmingham. However, the dew points do not support that. The dew point was 73 in Birmingham and 75 in Tuscaloosa, but in the lower 60s over the Tennessee Valley.
Not quite as hot this afternoon. At midday, the temperatures were in the low to mid 80s across the north and central sections.
