In times like these, hot as the blazes and dry, dry, dry, we cherish every shower that shows up around our great state.

So, here is an update as of 1:25 this afternoon.

Scattered showers have developed all the way down the west side of the state from the Tennessee border to the coast. Mainly over the two rows of counties closest to the Mississippi border. Some of the heaviest showers:

…..North Marengo County, near Demopolis, part of the area that received downpours last evening.

…..Over Extreme South Central Alabama near the Florida Border.

Everything moving steadily southward as if they can’t wait to get to the Gulf of Mexico. The most lightning so far is in the cluster close to the Florida border.
