I feel sure 98.7 percent of you folks are sawing logs but here is an update anyway.
The noisy storms continue in the wee moring hours of Thursday but overall they are trying to simmer down.
Still some heavy rain.
At 12:20 am, some of the heaviest was in a west to east band across Central Tuscaloosa County to near the north tip of Bibb County (Green Pond) and into SW Shelby County. Heaviest rain was still in the general vicinity of Tuscaloosa/Northport.
Thunderstorms still dumping heavy rain over SW Blount County.
An area of moderate to heavy rain persists over North Walker and West Cullman County
REPORT FROM NORTH CULLMAN COUNTY
Mile Wilhelm, 3340 Skywatcher for Vinemont was sad to see the rain pass him by most of today and tonight. However, a quick downpour gave Vinemont 0.64 in only 18 minutes late tonight. Mike has a midnight smile on his face. Vinemont is about as far as you can go north in Cullman County without crossing into Morgan County.
Hey, I feel like I am still in the National Weather Service. This is sort of a flash-back to the many midnight to 8 am shifts I worked in those 32 years!
And remember, just two more days of summer! Autumn starts Saturday for us weather humans (?) Yeah, I know the official autumn is still three weeks away. But who goes by that?
Yummy coffee. Not sleepy.
