Severe Thunderstorm Warning : Cullman Co.

NWS Huntsville issues a severe thunderstorm warning for Cullman County… this is an elevated storm, but they believe there is potential for strong winds due to the bow echo configuration on radar…

The warning is for a small part of northern Cullman County, and we don’t expect widespread severe weather issues over North Alabama this morning. This bow echo is ahead of the surface low, which is moving into Northwest Alabama now.
