Much of Alabama has received rain today. Generally, amounts have been light over most of the area between one half and one inch.
An inch has been my goal all day in Trussville…and we were up to 0.85 a short while ago with another nice rand band moving in. This added nicely to the 2.12 I saw yesterday. Brian Peters in Helena had 0.95. JB, on the NE side of Trussville had 0.73 at last check with 1.24 since yesterday.
The best rainfall amounts have been over West Central Alabama where a large area of one half to two inch amounts look likely.
Some three inch or higher amounts look possible over Sumter and Greene Counties north of Livingston.
The activity is diminishing for now across much of the area.
Mostly light rain is now scattered across North Central Alabama.
A large mass of moderate rain is east of Birmingham from east of Columbiana to Heflin to Ashville to between Pell City and Moody.
Heavy thunderstorms are over West Central Alabama from southern Bibb through northern Perry into southern Hale into Sumter Counties. They are moving east toward Chilton and Autauga Counties.
A few counties in South Central Alabama are still under a tornado watch until 8 p.m. but no warnings are in effect for any Alabama counties for now.
The rain and thunderstorms should gradually diminish through the evening hours with most rainfall gone by morning. Tomorrow looks like a warm and humid day with scattered thunderstorms developing during the afternoon hours.
