Not as many and not as heavy, but a few widely scattered showers were still in progress early this evening.

At 7 pm, the widely scattered showers were mostly across Central Alabama including a few in the Greater Birmingham area. They were mostly light over East and South Jefferson and Shelby County.

In South Talladega, there was a moderate to heavy shower near Sylacauga.

Several heavier showers and even some thunder and lightning over East Mississippi where they had moved out of West Alabama.

At 5:24 pm, the Lamar County EMA reported a tree across a house one mile SW of Vernon on Lamar County Road 9.
