| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A powerful and cold upper level low tracked northeast across the Tennessee Valley during the late evening of the 10th and early morning of the 11th. Numerous showers and thunderstorms produced an initial 1 to 2 inches of rain from the evening of the 10th into the overnight hours of the 11th. A few of the stronger storms produced small hail. One line segment produced wind damage as well in northeastern Cullman County. A lightning strike sparked a blaze in Scottsboro. Minor street flooding was reported in parts of northern Madison County during this period.||As the low moved across during the mid to late morning hours, another round of heavy rainfall and strong thunderstorms occurred. The strong storms produced prolific amounts of small hail, in some cases coating the ground, and very frequent lightning strikes. The strikes knocked power out in Gurley and in portions of Huntsville. The secondary area of rain produced another 1 to 3 inches of rainfall, producing urban flash flooding in central and northeast Huntsville, and submerging at least one vehicle and pushing flood waters into a few homes. The runoff also created rapid rises on creeks and streams in the area. |
