Tornado Emergency for Alexander City, AL

Mesoscale Discussion 0055 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0100 PM CST Thu Jan 12 2023 Areas affected...central AL Concerning...Tornado Watch 18... Valid 121900Z - 122000Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 18 continues. SUMMARY...A strong to intense tornado (~EF3) is likely ongoing across central AL and after tornado demise, a wind-damage risk will likely continue into east-central AL. DISCUSSION...KBMX radar imagery shows an intense low-level mesocyclone moving through an adequately moist/moderately buoyant airmass across central AL. SPC data analytics indicates a strong/intense tornado is likely ongoing across Autauga County, AL. The area VAD/s show large hodographs with 300 m2/s2 0-0.5 km effective SRH. The strong shear/buoyancy will likely aid in sustaining the supercell after eventual tornado demise once the squall line overtakes the supercell. Nonetheless, a significant wind-damage threat and some tornado risk will likely continue into eastern AL through the mid afternoon. ..Smith.. 01/12/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
