What started off as a pretty distinct line in MS is becoming a bit more discrete headed to AL. That's not good news.




Nope. Not great to see.

Lookout sotuh of Baldwyn riding south of the current tornado warning. That cell is starting to get some decent rotation. I'd expect it to get warned soon.

The rotation north of Belmont, MS has tightened up over the last 10 minutes or so. I didn’t think much of it when I first looked a little bit ago but it looks more impressive all of the sudden.

A lot of shear in play, and good instability. They're going to go up quick.

Wow, I just drove through there this morning. Could have been me. Really makes you think.

I guess I wasn’t paying attention. Thought Belmont was in Alabama.

The rotation attached to the warning is getting tighter by the minute.

It might end up being something.

Distinct supercell structures but luckily they have stayed clustered. Cell SW of Tupelo might be an issue depending on how long it can stay discrete.

Looks like two tornados riding side by side now.

Southern one is the most developed.

But there’s more tonight, right?

The city effectively shut down this afternoon.

Current sat images show an west to east area of agitated CU (pre thunderstorm clouds) out in front of the dryline. This is south of the current cells and anything that grows out of that could be threat to Birmingham.
