ACTIVE WEATHER DAY AHEAD: Strong to severe storms, some with large hail, continue across Central Alabama early this morning. The storms are near a surface boundary that is nearly stationary.

Unsettled weather will continue over the southern 2/3 of the state through tonight. SPC maintains an "enhanced risk" (level 3/5) of severe thunderstorms for much of Central and South Alabama.

While the main concern today will come from large hail, a few isolated tornadoes can't be ruled out. In fact, SPC has introduced a hatched area across in the enhanced risk, meaning a strong tornado (EF-2 or higher) is possible.

There will be multiple rounds of thunderstorms through tonight; the higher risk of a tornado will come this afternoon and evening.

The risk of severe storms north of I-20 (Tuscaloosa to Birmingham to Anniston) is very low.

Stay weather aware today and be sure you have a reliable way of hearing warnings.
