Strong gusts, and perhaps a brief tornado will be the main hazards with any more intense cells that can develop. DISCUSSION...Deepening updrafts have occasionally been noted in visible satellite imagery and via KMOB radar over the past hour. Convective development is trying to occur in the wake of earlier day shower/cloudiness and within a low-level warm advection regime. Weak low-level convergence is also noted in surface observations. Surface heating into the 70s and dewpoints climbing into the mid 60s F are supporting a narrow corridor of moderate instability across southwest AL.=20 Large-scale ascent will remain nebulous across the area, with any stronger forcing remaining focused further north toward TN. As a result, storm development and coverage are uncertain. Given favorable deep shear across the region and sufficient instability, if an updraft can become sustained, an organized cell can not be ruled out. Any stronger convection could produce locally gusty winds, small hail, or perhaps a brief spin-up. Given uncertainty, a watch is not currently expected, but trends will be monitored. ...Leitman/Smith.. 11/07/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!5pYJgkGfqJNFKkeFO9yJjP6WuBAih3ZMnuKiQ--L9jV5IFCKbCgLOp4xcnGazyfvQnhRkps-h= Ll8OxzpfhZFrdEUSko$ for graphic product...
