Some communities getting very welcome rain late this afternoon.
Only thing, overall, only a small precentage of the countryside getting the benefit.
At 5:15, some of the heavier showers and storms:
* East Walker County in the Empire, Dora, Cordova areas
* I-65 south near Hoover (a small one)
* Marion County near Hamilton
Earlier, one of those storms moved through Winfield. Kim Langston, 3340 Skywatcher reported that about 4:10 pm, a strong wind, possible a downburst, lifted a portable building about 12x15 feet in size, possibly larger, at the Foodland Shopping Center. It was raining so hard that the visibility at one time was only a few feet.
These are some of the main storms...not all inclusive. Movement is mostly toward the NW and north.
