Rain, rain go away for 2018 Memorial Day.  These numbers keep changing but the latest model shows 3-5 inches for West Alabama during our 3 day weekend.  James Spann says some areas could see rain thru Wednesday of next week.

Latest National Hurricane Center Update at 10:00AM/25 May 18:

  • Storm is now a named sup-tropical system called Alberto. It continues to strengthen and will make landfall late this weekend as a strong tropical storm or possibly as a Cat. 1 Hurricane.
  • Entire State of Alabama in “Cone of Uncertainty”. Landfall expected along Mississippi Gulf Coast, putting Alabama in the more severe Eastern Quadrant of the tropical system.
  • Alabama will not see tropical storm impacts until Sunday morning. Tropical storm winds will begin moving on shore at that time and will last through Tuesday.
  • System’s forward movement will be very slow, resulting in torrential and significant rainfall in Mobile and Baldwin Counties.
  • Strengthening of storm to strong Tropical Storm probable by Saturday. Strengthening to a Cat. 1 Hurricane cannot be ruled out due to very warm waters in the northern Gulf of Mexico.
  • 2 to 4’ of storm surge expected Sunday night into Monday along Alabama Gulf Coast.
  • This will be an epic rain producer…

Ø  6-12” of rain over coastal AL. Up to 15” cannot be ruled out in some areas.

Ø  4-8” of rain across inland South Alabama

Ø  3-5” of rain possible over west Alabama

  • Tornadoes are possible Sunday night into Monday in South Alabama and will expand into interior or state.

UPDATE 4pm:  System is stalling and moving slower impact has changed to Monday.

UPDATE 6pm:  James Spann says 3-6 inches possible for West Alabama and I'm getting out the dang ponchos!  I hope thats how ya spell ponchos! :)

A BIG Bear Hug to those that paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
