TS Lee Update
Soaking tropical rain continues over Southeast Louisiana and coastal Mississippi this evening, with a few showers eastward into Southwest Alabama.
The large rain mass over the northern Gulf in association with Lee will move into the Alabama and Northwest Florida by daybreak tomorrow. Flash flood watches remain in effect for the Central Gulf Coast where over 10 inches of rain are likely through Monday.
Up this way in North-Central Alabama, the rain arrives Sunday, and will continue into Labor Day. Rain amounts of 3 to 6 inches are likely for this end of the state.
So far, the peak wind gust at our Gulf Shores SKYCAM has been 44 mph; but the wind is not the big story with Lee, it is the rain and potential for flooding. Scroll down for full details, or watch the Weather Xtreme video.
