  1. Looks like the tornado significantly weakened or lifted before hitting Wilsonville.
  2. A large concern with this setup is the potential for wedge tornadoes overnight in a region notorious for after-dark tornado outbreaks. As the evening wanes and the nocturnal LLJ ramps up, this setup is screaming danger in the 0-1 km layer over Alabama. Textbook long/looping hodographs, shear vectors with a large magnitude component normal to the front, and extremely low LCL heights. Not what you want to see at any time, let alone 12-4 am. These rain wrapped wedges may be hard to make out during the day, let alone at night. Nobody should attempt to confirm these. Was going to post this last night, I'll post it now that some skeptics have showed up before the nocturnal LLJ has fully ramped up.
  3. Impressive supercell cycling, going from one intense circulation to the next (which was really two circulations). Glad to hear it was in a rural area, hopefully nobody got hurt. 28969709-d90d-444c-98d3-5b01b0fc1226.mp4
