Diurnal convection over Central Alabama during the afternoons of June 16 and 17 led to several instances of wind damage. One storm in particular caused fairly widespread tree damage across Anniston, Oxford, and Weaver in Calhoun County, with some trees falling on homes, vehicles, or power lines. More afternoon thunderstorms lingered over the Birmingham metro on June 18, causing minor flooding of several area roadways around downtown Birmingham, Homewood, and Irondale.
