dwagner88 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 So far the name of the game with this event has been heavy freaking rain. MRX pulled the trigger for a FFW for the southern valley. It was needed. After our bout of heavy rain yesterday morning, there were bound to be problems with this much convection interacting with a stalled warm front.

Holston_River_Rambler Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Got some even larger hail with another storm that just rolled through. Still pea-sized, but the hail with this one was much more intense than the last storm that rolled through: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nrgjeff Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Cullman, AL sits on an elevated feature. One could say the Cullman feature hooks west from the end of Sand Mountain. At any rate elevated gets these locales up into the higher inflow winds. While we can hypothesize on terrain here, I tell the public it does not matter. Don't assume protection. Don't be terrified by previous tornadoes. Just take all warnings seriously. Be aware but not (too) scared. Don't waste energy on fear; just get the safe room ready. Usually I prep it with the Watch so the Warning is seamless. Overnights I prep the room before bed. Southern Discomfort!
