The storm near Mclain MS is really packing a punch. Very impressive embedded rotation.

Big CC drop now with that cell as well.

Another TDS near Livingston

NW of Tuscaloosa. Looping the last 3 frames, there were definitely two brief TDS signatures with that storm, though a few scans removed (velocity scans showed the two areas of rotation as well)

Decent one

[nwohweather]

I’ve noticed SRH has ramped up significantly this evening and instability isn’t terrible. Mobile is definitely under the gun at the moment

[nwohweather]

Might be a big one building around Fairhope crossing the bay now

We had a brief outbreak in central & west central AL & at least 1 appears was an EF2+ over Perry/Bibb/Shelby Co. But the situation down toward Mobile, which had 65+ dewpoints, still hasn't wound down.

That's the really dangerous part, there's no Lightning to help spotters see it at night

Not as bad as least week's event down here in SETX, although SW side of Houston had a damaging straight line wind gust that ripped a balcony off one condo and threw it through a window of another, onto the sleeping owner, who was uninjured.  Strong dynamics can overcome a lot.  Shelf temps are in mid 60sF off Texas, so early morning passage doesn't hurt since they'd be low clouds and fog from high dewpoint air coming over cool water limiting daytime heating.  System a week ago was dynamic as dynamic gets to produce severe weather in SETX.  Hailed in Houston last week, that is rare.
