So far, no precipitation in NE Jefferson County in the Trussville area
Latest radar reports indicate that precipitation has spread as far north as Fayette, extreme South Walker and about the south half of Jefferson County and across into East/Central Alabama.The sleet on the north part of the broad rain area should change over to rain later.
At 10:40 a.m., the heaviest precipitation was across South/Central Alabama from west of Montgomery to SE of Demopolis. Everything was moving toward the NE.
We will post some weather information a little later this morning for areas east and NE of Alabama.
