The Severe Thunderstorm Warning for South Clay County expired at 6:15. That line of storms now moving quickly east across Randolph and Tallapoosa County.
The NWS decided to not issue a watch for East Alabama and part of West Georgia. Storms generally going downhill.
A low pressure area was centered near Anniston early this evening and moving NE. Behind the low, winds over west and NW Alabama were shifting to the NW bringing in much cooler weather. Just look at this temperature profile at 6 PM, going from SE to NW:
83 in Montgomery
79 in Alexander City
64 in Muscle Shoals
46 in Tunica, Miss., and Memphis
44 in NW Arkansas
NOT A GOOD TIME IN OCEAN SPRINGS
Scott McClellan, our contact in Ocean Springs, Miss., east of Biloxi, explains that they experienced three Severe Thunderstorm Warnings and five Tornado Warnings in the last three days. They got 1.77 inches of rain quickly today bringing the total to almost eight inches in the last three days!
ALABAMA RAINFALL
We will post some of today's rainfall amounts later. One report that we do have is 2.50 inches in Brilliant.
