Slowly Drying Out; A Few Peeks of Sun

The rain has been tapering off the last few hours. That is a relief as rains overnight and this morning have inundated portions of East Alabama. Flooding is ongoing and there are major concerns about river flooding along the Tallapoosa River. As this round of rain winds down, there are a few breaks in the clouds this afternoon, where we are seeing a few glimpses of sunshine. However, skies remain mostly cloudy to overcast.

A few very light scattered showers are ongoing across North-Central Alabama. The heaviest shower currently remains over East Alabama in Cleburne County. We are expecting additional showers and thunderstorms to develop later this afternoon. With the threat of additional rainfall, especially over East Alabama, the NWS maintains a flash flood watch for the areas east of Interstate 65 through Sunday afternoon.
