Just since I happened to see it when posting the forecast, we do have some damaging wind gusts trying to happen with some thunderstorms in mainly far Northeast Alabama up into Southern Middle Tennessee.
And we did have a tree come down earlier on Lynnbrook Drive in Waterloo, reported by the 911 Center. You can have random tree damage like that with summer storms, along with hail that usually stays under quarter-size. And the NWS does issue Severe Thunderstorm Warnings where needed, or more often, just Special Weather Statements. Of course you should take reasonable precautions if in the path of something like that, but overall, I wouldn't worry about it. They stay isolated, and they rain themselves out pretty quickly. It's not the same beast as the storms we have in the spring or late fall. Most of us are not going to get a storm or even a light shower tonight.
