I suppose that we are so anxious for rain, that we resort to these “play-by-pay” updates. Be sure to scroll down and see earlier posts that are still valid including Brian’s morning video discussion:

At 9:30 AM:
* Heavy rain on the UofA Campus, Tuscaloosa.

* Bud Bean, 3340 Skywatcher for Northport reports 0.61 already.

* Heavy rain now approaching the Tuscaloosa-Jefferson County line. Good showers should reach places like Vance, Bucksville, Tannehill State park, McCalla by 10 am.

* Rain continuing at Muscle Shoals, Huntsville and Decatur. Mike Wilhelm reported a period of heavy rain at Decatur earlier.

* Thunderstorms in progress at Columbus, Miss., Meridian Naval Air Station and, in South Alabama at Evergreen
