What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark
May 2, 2:50 PM CDT	TSTM WND DMG	Wnw Red Bay, AL	TREES AND POWER LINES WERE DOWNED ALONG 7TH ST SW IN RED BAY.

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this tornado warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Little Rock, AR (KLZK), launched 12:00Z, 7.6 hours before the alert went out and 175 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Huntsville, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at May 2, 1:06 PM CDT, 1 hour 32 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 2, 1:06 PM CDT, 1 hour 32 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HUNTSVILLE AL
106 PM CDT SAT MAY 2 2009

.UPDATE...FOR 18Z TAFS.

&&

.AVIATION...
AREA OF CONVECTION MOVING ACROSS NRN MISS WILL BE MOVING INTO KMSL
BY ~19Z AND KHSV BY ~21Z. LEADING EDGE OF BAND OF PRECIP IS MOSTLY
STRATIFORM...WITH EMBEDDED TSRA TRAILING ABOUT ONE HOUR. IFR VIS
LIKELY IN CONVECTION...BUT MAY NEED TO AMEND FOR PERIODIC IFR OR
EVEN LIFR CIG POTENTIAL. TSRA LIKELY FOR ABOUT A TWO HOUR
PERIOD...WITH TRAILING SHRA AND IMPROVING VISBY/CIG LIKELY
AFTERWARDS WITHIN AREA OF LOWER TOPPED SHRA. FCST BEYOND 00Z
ACTUALLY BECOMES QUITE DIFFICULT AS A SERIES OF WAVES ARE EXPECTED
TO CROSS THE AREA...AND INSTIGATE FURTHER SHRA/TSRA DEVELOPMENT.
LATEST BEST TIMING WOULD SUGGEST ANOTHER ROUND OF SHRA/TSRA BTWN
04Z-10Z AT TERMINALS. MVFR CIGS/VIS WOULD BE LIKELY AND POSSIBLY
MUCH LOWER INTO THE LIFR CATEGORY GIVEN THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY
CONVECTION. GIVEN REMAINING UNCERTAINTIES...LATER TAF ISSUANCES WILL
BETTER ADDRESS TIMING/IMPACT POTENTIAL AS CONVECTION EVOLVES.

&&

.DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1109 AM CDT SAT MAY 2 2009/

FIRST WAVE OF PRECIP TODAY IS ABOUT TO EXIT OUR CWFA TO THE
EAST...WITH SOME PATCHES OF +RA AND AN ISOLD TSRA OR TWO PRIMARILY
IN JACKSON/DEKALB COUNTIES. WIDESPREAD PRECIP AMOUNTS THUS FAR
THIS MORNING HAVE BEEN AROUND ONE HALF INCH OR LESS WITH RADAR
ESTIMATED AMOUNTS UP TO AROUND AN INCH ALONG A SWATH FROM NORTHERN
COLBERT AND SOUTHERN LAUDERDALE COUNTIES THROUGH SOUTHERN FRANKLIN
COUNTY (TN). ANOTHER SWATH OF HEAVIER PRECIP WITH NEAR ONE INCH
AMOUNTS HAS OCCURRED MAINLY IN NORTHERN PORTIONS OF DEKALB COUNTY.
IN SPITE OF RECENT HEAVY RAINS...ONLY ONE REPORT OF FLASH FLOODING
IN THE HENAGAR/IDER ARES OF DE KALB COUNTY HAS BEEN RECEIVED SO
FAR THIS MORNING.

OTHERWISE...LATEST ANALYSIS SHOWS THE SFC FRONT HAS STALLED TO OUR
NW...GENERALLY THROUGH EAST CENTRAL OK...CENTRAL AR...INTO WEST
TN AND NORTH MIDDLE TN. AREAS OF DEEP CONVECTION CONTINUE TO
DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT PRIMARILY FROM EAST OK INTO NRN
MISS...ALTHOUGH SAT TRENDS INDICATE RECENT WARMING OF CLOUD TOP
TEMPS IN ASSOC WITH CONVECTION IN THE NRN MISS/WRN TN AREAS. RADAR
TRENDS INDICATE MAINTENANCE OF DEEP CONVECTION HOWEVER ACROSS ERN
AR INTO NRN MISS...WITH CELLS DISPLAYING AN EWRD TENDENCY. VIS
IMAGERY ALSO INDICATES SOME CLEARING EXTENDING INTO PARTS OF
CENTRAL MISS/AL WHICH SHOULD HELP TO INCREASE THE TEMP/THETA-E
GRADIENT ACROSS THE REGION INTO THE AFTN. THIS SHOULD HELP TO
CAUSE FURTHER DESTABILIZATION TO THE SOUTH OF FRONT IN THE WARM
SECTOR...AND HELP TO REINVIGORATE CONVECTION LATER TODAY AS A
WEAK LOW-LVL JET STREAK AND UPR SHORT WAVE CROSS THE AREA.
SO...EXPECTING CONVECTION TO DEVELOP AGAIN LATER TODAY INTO THIS
EVENING AND FURTHER EXACERBATE THE POTENTIAL FLOODING SITUATION.
AS A RESULT OF THE RAINS RECEIVED SO FAR...AND THE POSSIBLE RAINS
STILL TO DEVELOP...HAVE ISSUED A FLOOD WATCH FOR THE AREA UNTIL
MIDNIGHT SUNDAY.

WIDESPREAD RAINFALL AMOUNTS AROUND ONE INCH...WITH ISOLATED
AMOUNTS AROUND TWO INCHES CAN BE EXPECTED WITH THIS NEXT BATCH OF

FLOODING POTENTIAL ACROSS THE AREA. IN ADDITION TO THE FLOODING
THREAT...GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE SYSTEMS INVOLVED
TOMORROW...SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE A POSSIBILITY...INCLUDING LARGE
HAIL...DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...AND ISOLATED TORNADOES. THE
POSSIBILITY FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL LINGER THROUGH MONDAY...BEFORE
A COLD FRONT CROSSES THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT.

THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR A SIGNIFICANT FLOODING EVENT ACROSS THE
AREA THROUGH LATE SUNDAY AND PERHAPS INTO MONDAY AS NUMEROUS
STREAMS MAY REACH OR EXCEED BANKFULL STAGES. RESIDENTS AND THOSE
TRAVELING THROUGH THE AREA ARE ENCOURAGED TO MONITOR THE LATEST
INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OR THEIR
