That'll mostly be a hail threat. A few tornadoes, maybe, but the way the atmosphere is shaping up, looks like another hail storm.

Well, there is some pretty strong instability anticipated for that area tomorrow according to sounding forecasts at Birmingham. The SPC says in its Day 2 Outlook that "strong tornadoes" are possible in that area.

The terrible part about this is, right now @ midnight EST. storms are firing and getting stronger, and everyone is going to sleep.
