High-Res Radar Evolution of the Clarke County Supercell
GR2Analyst - we are currently closely watching a severe thunderstorm (now post-severe) sweeping across Clarke County [SOUTHWESTERN AL] and is now moving into Northwest Monroe County. The storm prompted a Tornado Warning and then a Severe Thunderstorm Warning, but at this time.. we have NOT received any reports from these storms.
At this time, all severe warnings for this storm have been cancelled.. but strong gusty winds & hail are still expected. We will still be here if any future warnings are needed. But the good news is that we seem to be documenting a weakening trend. #alwx
1:15am Severe Weather Update
⚠️ THE THREAT CONTINUES:
Severe thunderstorms remain possible across portions of SOUTH & CENTRAL Alabama through the wee hours! Damaging winds, isolated tornadoes, and even large hail all remain possible.
Hang in there guys! We are successfully getting through it together. The good news is that so far the magnitude of the event hasn’t been that high in Alabama.. but that could still change.
We will continue to stay on top of it! #alwx
Make sure you have your RELIABLE SOURCE of warning information TURNED ON! #alwx

TAKE A LOOK:
I took this shot of a severe thunderstorm that rolled over Shelby & St. Clair counties in Alabama this afternoon. These are the types of storms that can destroy property and injure or even kill people.
Always have a safety plan ready along with a reliable way to get warnings (i.e NOAA Weather Radio). It could save your life.
Continue to stick with Alabama Storm Alert for the latest regarding where the next severe storms will strike! Don’t forget I do live Tornado Warning coverage across EVERY COUNTY in Alabama! #alwx

Closely watching the Fayette County supercell (will exit into northwest Walker County soon) and a tornado-producing storm from Mississippi that weakened in Pickens County that is about to move into Tuscaloosa County, still showing rotation. There seems to be a slow weakening trend, however, severe storms could still push eastward across central and northern Alabama through the evening. #alwx
