Yes — the National Weather Service has a flood Advisory in effect for Lee, AL, until 6:45 PM.
Live CNAW radar over the viewing area. Map: CNAW 2, built from NOAA data on a USGS base.
* WHAT... Urban area and small stream flooding caused by excessive rainfall is expected.
Those are the Weather Service’s own words. CNAW does not rewrite a warning.
Why it is doing this
The barometer is down 1.4 millibars in six hours. Falling pressure means air is being lifted somewhere close by, and lifted air is what builds cloud and, eventually, rain.
A dew point of 76 is tropical. That number, not the thermometer, decides how the heat feels — and it is why the nights barely cool off, because the moisture holds the day’s warmth in.
