Strong Storms South of Birmingham; Storm Near Troy is a Beast Also

| August 18, 2024 @ 7:58 pm

Strong storms have developed just south of Birmingham, from east of Tuscaloosa into Bibb County, then over Shelby County near Chelsea and Vincent, into extreme southern St. Clair and western Talladega Counties. They extend further across southern Talladega County into Clay and Randolph Counties. 8-14 lightning flashes per minutes with the stronger cells.

Lots of lightning and heavy rain as well as gusty winds with this activity. They are not severe and should stay below severe limits.

The storm near Troy is a beast, with golf ball sized hail likely. Folks from Banks to Antioch down to Brundidge need to be ready for this one. Put your cars in carports or garages is possible. Do not be outside.
