Severe T'Storm Warning

The earlier tornado warning has been cancelled. This warning is mainly for golfball sized hail, but winds could also gust up to 60 miles per hour. And that is dangerous in itself. 

3:01 PM - And now my stream-surfing has taken me over to Ben Smith and Danielle Dozier on WHNT-19. 

3:05 - At this point in time, I think the messy storm mode, where we've got lots of rain and thunder scattered across the area, is helping us out some, to stabilize the atmosphere so that we haven't seen a lot of tornado activity up this way. We can't count on that to last, since we have roughly 8 hours left to go for this event. Definitely watching those supercells in Southern Mississippi entering West-Central AL, especially the storm approaching Tuscaloosa County that may be producing a tornado.
