A low-amplitude trough affected the Gulf Coast region April 19th with Central Alabama impacts consisting of two significant straight-line wind events (resulting in injuries), with other storms producing large hail and flash flooding. This activity was mainly focused south of Interstate 20.
During the morning of the 19th, a warm front was located along the immediate Gulf Coast, placing all of Central Alabama in an environment consisting of a stable low-level air mass; however, there was plenty of wind shear & instability aloft to support the development of elevated thunderstorms (some severe) associated with a lead impulse. After a midday break, a second round occurred late afternoon through the evening hours as the warm front struggled to move northward.
