Valid 121900Z - 122000Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 18 continues. SUMMARY...A strong to intense tornado (~EF3) is likely ongoing across central AL and after tornado demise, a wind-damage risk will likely continue into east-central AL. DISCUSSION...KBMX radar imagery shows an intense low-level mesocyclone moving through an adequately moist/moderately buoyant airmass across central AL. SPC data analytics indicates a strong/intense tornado is likely ongoing across Autauga County, AL.=20 The area VAD/s show large hodographs with 300 m2/s2 0-0.5 km effective SRH. The strong shear/buoyancy will likely aid in sustaining the supercell after eventual tornado demise once the squall line overtakes the supercell. Nonetheless, a significant wind-damage threat and some tornado risk will likely continue into eastern AL through the mid afternoon. ...Smith.. 01/12/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6gZGYXTXcHM4cGHsaZhXV-cqlxpkIP6J7d8rA87nPZqEwFM3v_lWrD7_Qm-fZ2x6IXKQHRGft= PMtJ67JB3wmh4Q9yAI$ for graphic product...
