A quick look at the radar this afternoon, shows most areas across Central Alabama remain dry for now. Some sprinkles and drizzle are possible, but the heaviest rain remains to our north and west. Expect additional showers and thunderstorms to develop throughout the afternoon and into the evening hours. Some storms back toward the Mississippi River could reach severe limits, but as the storms move towards us, we are not expecting severe weather. Flooding is a significant threat for much of the south as numerous flood watches and warnings are in affect in many area. Heavy rain is falling across northern Arkansas which is where the greatest uplift is located with the front. As the front inches its way towards our direction, rain chances and coverage will be on the increase. Several more days of wet weather are on tap for Alabama.
