A line of moderate to heavy rain was moving steadily eastward across Central Alabama at 10:15 am. Rain should reach Helena between 11:45 am and 12:30 pm. Rain amount of half to one inch possible. Nothing severe has been reported so far. #alwx #HelenaAL

Very light rain (light green) reaching #HelenaAL with much heavier rain (yellow and orange) lagging a bit further to the southwest. Looking like a soaker for your Sunday. #alwx

So nice to see the impact of drought conditions has shrunk so much for Alabama with the rains over the last several weeks. #alwx

[Brian Peters @HelenaWx]

Rain just about to end in #HelenaAL with 1.22” in gauge since midnight; storm total at 1.33” and November total at 2.40”. #alwx

#HelenaAL hit a low of 29 just after 4 am with temp holding steady as sunrise nears. #ALWX

[Brian Peters @HelenaWx]

So glad to see drought conditions whittled back by recent rain for #alwx. Still can use a bit more mainly east-central and south east Alabama.

[Brian Peters @HelenaWx]

Very easy to see the abrupt temperature drop when the cold front arrived dropping the temperature nearly 30 degrees. And the rain has departed so the October total for #HelenaAL is 7.56” making October the 2nd wettest month of 2019! #alwx

[Brian Peters @HelenaWx]

So how about some interesting but useless facts? #HelenaAL has seen 41.03” of rain this year. The driest month? September with 0.18”. The wettest month?February with 7.85 - unless October can must 1.01” in the next 35 hours! First two months of 2019 recorded 14.08”. #alwx

[Brian Peters @HelenaWx]

#HelenaAL received a good soaking today with rainfall at 5:05 pm standing at 1.50”. October, typically the driest month of the year. has seen 6.74”. With more rain in the forecast for tonight and Halloween, we are likely to surpass 7” for the month! #alwx

[Brian Peters @HelenaWx]

Rainfall total today in #HelenaAL just passed 2.50” so pay attention to Flood Advisory for parts of Bibb and Shelby counties. #alwx
