Most of the showers and thunderstorms have moved into East Alabama--most of them east of I-65.
At 7:30 pm, they were mostly in the Anniston-Heflin-Talladega-Sylacauga area. One of the strongest storms was over NE Chilton County east of I-65.
All showers and storms were moving east and SE.
The strongest storms were producing locally heavy rain and considerable lightning.
But overall, they have decreased in strength and this will probably be our last update unless the storms intensify again.
In closing, here are some rainfall amounts from this afternoon's storms, including amounts from the Skycam network:
0.47 in Downtown Birmingham
0.36 in Inverness
0.19 at Gadsden
0.03 atop Mt. Cheaha
0.19 at Riverchase (3340 weather office)
0.17 at Birmingham Airport
0.59 at Shelby County Airport
0.18 at Anniston Airport
These are not final totals because it was still raining at many of these locations. A lot of places got very heavy rain.
