Shower activity has increased over much of North Alabama during the past 45 minutes…and a lot of it is centered on the I-22/US-78 corridor targeting the Birmingham Metro.
At 8:45 p.m., radar indicated light to moderate but increasing showers across Marion, Winston, Fayette and Walker Counties, just entering northwestern Jefferson County.
Behind this, heavier showers were over Northwest Alabama’s Franklin, Colbert and Lauderdale Counties, moving into Marion County. Heavy rain was indicated from Hackleburg to Hodges and a rapidly developing thunderstorm extended from east of Red Bay to Russellville.
Showers were increasing in number and intensity over eastern Morgan, Cullman and Blount Counties. Heavy showers were already over much of St. Clair and Etowah Counties, moving into Calhoun County.
Keep your fingers crossed that this activity will continue to increase in coverage and give many areas a some devent rainfall amounts overnight.
