Widely Scattered Storms--2:55 pm Report

Occasional showers continue this afternoon over Extreme SE Alabama--part of a larger area of showers over South Georgia and North Florida.

Widely separated thunderstorms continue over North Alabama. Just before 3 pm, they extended from Pickens and Lamar County eastward across Fayette, Walker, North Tuscaloosa and South Cullman County.

Only a small percentage of that general area getting wet.

Strongest ones were near the Walker-Cullman County line and over the NE corner of Tuscaloosa.

Movement slowly toward the NNE.

They may be illegal, J. B. but I doubt many of us would consider them unwelcome. If it hadn't been for that 2.29" more than two weeks ago, I would have had only 2.25" in the last 2½ months. I'm hearing an increasing report of brush fires coming over the radio also.

Unwelcome?! Cut back on the coffee, JB, you're losing your mind.

Lost it years ago, Jake...used "unwelcome" because we did not have them in the forecast...a tongue-in-cheek remark.

I love the way JB uses his "illegal" terms - I understand what he means by it, and I have to say, they make me smile :)
