MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Strong storms moving across south Alabama are prompting tornado warnings on the sixth anniversary of a deadly tornado outbreak.

The National Weather Service issued at least a half-dozen warnings as the storms passed, and local authorities reported a twister on the ground in rural Pike County.

There weren’t any immediate reports of damaged structures or injuries. But the Storm Prediction Center says a photo showed damage from a possible twister in Montgomery County.



The severe weather came on the same date that dozens of twisters hopscotched across Alabama, killing more than 250 people on April 27, 2011.
