Hello Jay and List,

The only impact crater in Alabama (as far as I know) is the Wetumpka impact 
crater.
It is located in Elmore County, Alabama, USA (32° 31.5' N, 86° 10.5' W), its 
diameter
is 6.5 km.

Planar deformation features in quartz, an iridium component and impactites 
have
been found there.
