Rains Bring Flood Threat To Parts Of Alabama

Mobile, AL – Forecasters say heavy rains moving into Alabama are increasing the threat of flooding.

The National Weather Service says 2 to 4 inches of rain is likely in southwest Alabama through Thursday night, and some areas could see as much as 7 inches of rain before the precipitation ends.

The weather service has issued a flood watch for southwest Alabama, and more watches or warnings are possible as the system moves into Alabama from Mississippi.

Forecasters say numerous thunderstorms are also likely across north Alabama, with the rain extending into Saturday.
