Since we are searching for rain like it was a fugitive from justice, thought I would post these few amounts from last night’s big boomers. For the second night in a row, thunderstorms moved southward down the east side of the state except that last night, some of the storms were further westward into Talladega and Shelby County.
Vivid lightning could be seen for many miles.
0.43 at Childersburg
0.33 Lay Dam
0.77 Hackneyville (Tallapoosa County)
0.31 Horseshoe Bend
0.63 Vincent (East Chelby County)
0.31 Mitchell Dam
0.82 Wilsonville (Gaston Steam Plant)
0.74 Montgomery/Dannelly Field
Hail and some scattered wind damage in some of the stronger storms

Be sure and scroll down and see those excellent pix of David and Colleen Black on his surprise balloon ride for his 50th birthday. I have known David for a long time and I was almost certain he was only about age 42. Nice birthday David!
