1.44 in NE Trussville (in 35 minutes)
0.38 in Inverness
0.14 in Hoover/Bluff Park
0.35 at Tuscaloosa Airport (between 9 and 10 pm)
0.00 (not a drop) at Helena and Greystone Cove
Nathan Jones, ABC 3340 WeatherWatcher in Helena reports only 0.38 of an inch since July 22 and 0.17 of that fell late Friday.
Shall we call it the Helena Desert?
Well, a bit early for that.
This should be our last update for tonight (we hope)
