   Concerning...Tornado Watch 50...

   Valid 252145Z - 252245Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 50 continues.

   SUMMARY...A corridor for a long track intense to potentially violent
   tornado is expected to maximize through the next hour across central
   AL.

   DISCUSSION...An intense tornadic supercell located over Hale County
   will likely remain unimpeded as it moves to the east-northeast
   across central AL during the next 1-2 hours.  The near-storm
   environment is currently primed across central AL with 0-1 km SRH at
   600 m2/s2 per observed storm motion according to the KBMX VAD. 
   Given the very moist/strongly sheared environment, expecting a
   long-track intense (EF3+) and potentially violent tornado to
   continue east-northeast and reach the I-65 corridor over the next
   hour or so.
