Just got home from ABC 33/40 after another one of those “all nighters” Nothing like them. They are pasted in your memory forever.
It is pouring rain over the east half of Alabama early this morning. All the way from Dekalb and Jackson County down across such cities as Anniston, Gadsden, Talladega, Montgomery and Evergreen. The rain was especially heavy across Coosa and Lowdnes County
Much of the state has received a soaking from this event.
Most of the lightning at 4:50 am was over East Central and South Alabama.

QUICK ANALYSIS
This storm system was not as bad across Alabama as the one a week ago. In fact, not nearly as bad. After daylight viewing could add some damages. A nice statewide rain that probably made our drought very angry.
If time permits, will try to post a comprehensive list of rain amounts.
First, a power nap.
