A Real Gullywasher...

* Here are some rain totals from yesterday/early this morning:

Meridian (Key Field): 2.39"
Tylertown: 3.20"
Kosciusko: 6.53"
Raleigh: 4.47"
Yazoo City: 7.75"
Canton: 5.82"
Thomasville, AL: 2.04"
Birmingham: 1.72"
Tuscaloosa: 3.78"

* 7.75" in Yazoo City was the largest total I could find statewide. Parts of southeast Texas received over one foot of rain with this system.

* This should help us out in the fall foliage department. My fear was that the leaves would simply turn brown and fall off due to the extremely dry weather of late. Hopefully, that will not be the case.

* FORECAST: A few showers are possible on Thursday/Thursday night...Then we will return to cooler weather on Friday, lasting into the weekend. Rain will again return to the forecast by the second half of the weekend.
