A slow moving cold front caused two rounds of severe thunderstorms across Central Alabama, the first round in the morning hours of April 20, and the second round lasting from the evening of April 20 to the early morning of April 21. Storms in each round produced widespread damaging winds, and rainfall that lead to isolated incidents of flooding.
