It is not exactly a line of showers and some thunderstorms.
More like a zone.
Or, maybe a band.
Whatever the name, it extends from SW to NE all the way across the state. The center of the band would be from Livingston, Demopolis and Greensboro northeastward to about Talladega, Anniston and into North Cleburne County.
Not a solid band. There are breaks and gaps.
The heaviest showers were over North Cleburne County up against the Georgia border and over West Coosa County.
Scattered showers and some thunderstorms (really rather widely spaced) developed over East Central Alabama south of the band in some places as Coosa, Clay, Randolph, Chambers Counties.
The whole system is sliding toward the ESE or SE.
COLD FRONT ON OUR MENU
Well, a “cool” front. Late this morning, it was across North Arkansas and the NW corner of Tennessee.
What will it do for us?
Essentially, it will wipe out the shower chances for tomorrow over North and Central Alabama. The lower dew points will allow low temperatures to drop a bit to the upper 60s. (It was 74 this morning at Birmingham)
But, remember, we learned in Fourth Grade Meteorology that dry air heats better, so look for something like 92 tomorrow.
Literally running out our ears with rain reports. If you want to see a long list (probably a record long list on this blog) pour yourself a cup of coffee (or hot chocolate for certain of our Shywatchers) and scroll down.
