The rain continues out there across most of the area on this Saturday evening. The end is in sight. The back end of the rain shield was passing Vicksburg, Mississippi at 6:30 p.m.

The axis of the heaviest rain was passing across The I-59 corridor at 6:30.

Most of North Central Alabama will end up with rainfall amounts right around one inch or just a little higher. But over parts of West Central Alabama around Pickens, Greene and Sumter Counties, rainfall amounts of over two inches may be common, with a few reports over three inches. Same for East Central Alabama, where parts of Calhoun and Cleburne Counties may have picked up over two inches.

Rain should begin to taper off as we go through the evening hours, ending from west to east. Temperatures will fall into the 30s overnight, probably stopping just short of freezing, we believe.

Get ready for a sunny but cool day on Sunday with a biting north wind, gusting to around 20 mph at time. Highs will top out around 50 degrees tomorrow.

A nice warmup will begin on Monday, with above normal temperatures expected for the coming week.

Just checked my guage it registers 1.3" that was at 7pm here in Clay. The ground is totally saturated with standing water everywhere. Guess there's no deficit now!
