North Alabama was grazed by a severe storms Sunday night and into the early morning hours Monday. Rotating thunderstorms along a lifting warm front produced tornadoes throughout Mississippi including damage in Tupelo Sunday night. Thankfully the same tornadic thunderstorm weakened as it moved into Colbert County around 11:30 PM Sunday night.
Showers and a few storms continue this morning, but most data sources continue to dry out north Alabama by this afternoon and lasting through this evening. With that said, a muggy air-mass will be in place Monday, meaning isolated showers and storms could redevelop this afternoon. Those will be few and far between though as
