Helene brings tropical downpours and winds to east Alabama, through Friday afternoon

Helene brings tropical downpours and winds to east Alabama, through Friday afternoon
SEEING ANY RAIN THIS MORNING, AND THE RAIN IS STARTING TO REALLY COME TO AN END IN NORTHEAST ALABAMA. BUT THE WIND ADVISORY REMAINS THROUGH THE DAY TODAY. WINDS ARE GOING TO BE SUSTAINED BETWEEN 15 TO 25 MILES AN HOUR. BUT COULD GUST TO UP TO 35 MILES AN HOUR AT TIMES THROUGH THE DAY. SOME OCCASIONAL SHOWERS THROUGH THE DAY TOO. I THINK FOR A LOT OF US THIS MORNING WILL LIKELY JUST BE CLOUDY. THERE MAY EVEN BE SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS, BUT ONCE WE GET INTO THIS AFTERNOON, WE鈥橪L GET A LITTLE WRAPAROUND MOISTURE. AND SO THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT, SOME OCCASIONAL SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE. AND THEN BREEZY AT TIMES THIS WEEKEND WITH A FEW SHOWERS POSSIBLE TOO, ESPECIALLY ON SATURDAY, MAYBE A FEW AROUND ON SUNDAY. BUT CERTAINLY THE WEEKEND DOES NOT LOOK TO BE A WASHOUT. I THINK YOU鈥橪L GET OUTDOORS AND IN THE SOME OF THE GAMES WILL BE JUST FINE TOO. TROPICAL STORM HELENE, THE ACTUAL CENTER OF THE STORM EAST OF ATLANTA. BUT IT IS MOVING SO QUICKLY, AND THAT鈥橲 ONE OF THE REASONS WHY THE RAIN IS REALLY STARTING TO COME TO AN END. THERE IN SOME OF OUR NORTHEASTERN COUNTIES, LIKE GADSDEN AND MOUNTAIN BROOK AND KENNER, OVER TOWARD WEISS LAKE, CENTRE, ROCK RUN, RINGGOLD, SAND ROCK, YOU CAN SEE UP TOWARD FORT PAYNE TWO AND CROSSVILLE. SO THE RAIN THERE WILL LIKELY PULL AWAY OVER THE NEXT HOUR OR HOUR OR TWO, AND THEN YOU鈥橪L NOTICE AS WE GET INTO THIS AFTERNOON. SO THIS IS 2:00 TODAY. WHAT HAPPENS IS HELENE CONTINUES TO WEAKEN, BUT IT MOVES SO QUICKLY UP INTO TENNESSEE. AND THEN WE GET SOME MOISTURE ON THE BACKSIDE OF THAT. AND THAT WILL START TO SEND SOME ADDITIONAL SHOWERS OUR WAY LATER TODAY AND INTO TONIGHT. SO A LOT OF US MAY GET TO WORK AND SCHOOL AND NOT SEEING ANY RAIN, BUT THE ON THE WAY HOME OR INTO SOME OF THE GAMES TONIGHT. HIGH SCHOOL GAMES. THERE COULD BE A FEW SHOWERS AROUND AND THEN EVEN THE CHANCE FOR SOME SHOWERS STILL LINGERING TO HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND. SO RAIN TAPERS OFF ACROSS THE NORTHEAST. THEN WE GET SOME OCCASIONAL SHOWERS. TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S, GUSTY WINDS TODAY, A FEW SPOTTY SHOWERS AROUND AT TIMES ON SATURDAY WITH TEMPERATURES APPROACHING 80 AND THEN JUST A CHANCE OF A COUPLE OF SHOWERS SUNDAY. WE鈥橰E WARMER AND OVERALL DRIER HEADING INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. BA
