As we expected, severe weather has started moving into West Alabama late Tuesday afternoon with the potential to bring tornadoes. 

While there were no tornado watches or warnings issued by the National Weather Service around 5PM, reports came in that some damage had been reported in Reform.

Meteorologist James Spann tweeted that it could have come from a small, quick tornado that only lasted a minute or so.

The first images of the damage were shared very shortly after the storm moved through West Alabama.

For those wondering how a tornado could spring up with no warning, here's a little explanation from one of our Townsquare weather experts, Alex Puckett.
