A check on the radar mosaic across the Southern states shows a lot of rain falling in Mississippi and Louisiana. Rain is moving into our western counties, but has struggled to reach the ground in many locations through out the morning. The atmosphere over Alabama has been so dry but as the moisture moves in, the atmosphere is beginning to saturate and thus allowing more and more of the rain to make it to the surface. Nothing to heavy just some scattered showers impacting areas of West Alabama from Demopolis, to Tuscaloosa, Fayette, Reform, Gordo, Jasper and now stretching into West Jefferson County. Many areas will not see any rain today, but where it falls it shouldn’t be to heavy. It will make for slick roads around the areas its falling in. Rain should persist into the evening and overnight hours and should get out of here before it’s time for those Sunday morning activities around the area.
