What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Birmingham, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 22, 3:42 PM CDT, 2 hours 11 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 22, 3:42 PM CDT, 2 hours 11 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BIRMINGHAM AL
342 PM CDT TUE JUL 22 2008

.DISCUSSION...
ONGOING CONVECTION HAS AFFECTED NEARLY HALF OF THE CWA AND IS
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE WELL INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. THE CURRENT
STORMS ARE BEING FUELED/ENHANCED BY INTENSE AFTERNOON HEATING.
ALTHOUGH DEWPOINTS HAVE MIXED OUT A BIT NOW...INSTABILITY REMAINS
HIGH WITH LAPS LIFTED INDICES AT OR BELOW -4 ACROSS MOST OF THE
AREA AND WIDESPREAD CAPE IN EXCESS OF 3000. AFTER SUNSET...THE
INTENSITY OF THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DIMINISH A BIT...BUT SEVERE
STORMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE THANKS TO SOME 20 TO 30 KNOT WINDS
BETWEEN 700 AND 800 MB. INTERACTION WITH THE NUMEROUS OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES ACROSS THE AREA MAY ALSO HELP TO FOCUS LIFT...HELPING
TO OFFSET THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING. IF THAT WERE NOT ENOUGH TO
WORK ABOUT...AN MCS...CURRENTLY MOVING INTO NORTHERN ARKANSAS...MAY
THREATEN TO MOVE INTO NORTHWESTERN ALABAMA AFTER MIDNIGHT.

TOMORROW WILL BE A REPEAT OF TODAY AS A ILL DEFINED SURFACE
BOUNDARY CONTINUES TO SINK SLOWLY INTO CENTRAL ALABAMA.
THUNDERSTORMS MAY HAVE A HARDER TIME GETTING STARTED TOMORROW DUE
TO INCREASED CLOUD COVER...BUT ANY BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS WILL SET
UP THERMALLY INDUCED BOUNDARIES HELPING TO INITIATE THUNDERSTORMS.
THE GOOD NEWS...TEMPERATURES WILL NOT BE AS INTENSE. HIGHS SHOULD
TOP OUT IN THE LOWER 90S TOMORROW.

FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK...THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN
POSSIBLE...BUT AS THE SURFACE BOUNDARY DISSIPATES AND UPPER LEVEL
ENERGY SHIFTS OUT OF THE AREA...THE THREAT FOR STRONG OR SEVERE
WEATHER WILL DECREASE. LOOK FOR HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW TO
MIDDLE 90S. HEIGHTS ACTUALLY RISE A BIT BY FRIDAY WITH GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES
REMAINING PRETTY STEADY. WITH THAT IN MIND...ELECTED TO SIDE WITH
THE WARMER END OF GUIDANCE.

NORTHWESTERLY FLOW OVER THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK WILL
KEEP CENTRAL ALABAMA IN A ABNORMALLY WET PATTERN FOR LATE JULY.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE CLOSE TO NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION...18Z TAF DISCUSSION.

HAZE IS SLIGHTLY REDUCING VISIBILITIES AT MOST TAF SITES EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MGM AND TOI. THE BIGGEST IMPACT ON
AVIATION WILL COME LATER THIS AFTERNOON...WITH MOSTLY ISOLATED
CONVECTION AFFECTING THE SOUTHERN TAF SITES AND MORE ORGANIZED
CONVECTION ACROSS THE NORTH. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP
ALONG AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY AND BECOME LINEAR...WITH THE MAIN LINE
MOVING FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA DURING THE
LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND EXITING THE AREA BY MIDNIGHT.
EXPECT FOG TO REDUCE VISIBILITIES AT MGM AND TOI FOR A FEW HOURS
AGAIN EARLY TOMORROW MORNING.
