Some heavy rain has occurred over extreme North Jefferson County and points north early this morning. We have a report of 1.20 inches in Clay in only one hour. That community is in extreme NE Jefferson County. At my location in NE Trussville, only a fraction of that amount so far this morning but we had 2.40 for Sunday.
The ground is soft and mushy all across Central Alabama and we must watch our upcoming rain events closely. There are indications that we could receive three additional inches or more of rain between now and later in the day Wednesday. We will watch and wait.
Down near the coast, Sunday's rain at Mobile Airport (the official records site) sent the 2004 total to a whopping 71.29 inches which is more than 11 inches wettern than normal!
