Flooding rainfall, severe weather to target southern US into Tuesday

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The threat for flash flooding and localized severe thunderstorms will expand across the southern United States early this week.

Abundant moisture from the Gulf of Mexico will continue to fuel bouts of significant rainfall from Texas to the Carolinas.

Galveston, Texas, set a new record for the wettest December day on Saturday, when 7.68 inches of rain fell. This shattered the previous record of 6.30 inches set on Dec. 17, 1995.

Heavy rain caused street flooding and road closures in parts of southeastern Texas and southwestern Louisiana.

Additional bursts of rain will track over the South and threaten even more communities with flash flooding and road closures.

One swath of rain will move across the interior Southeast through Sunday.

3. Already getting snow near my place, Everett's Silver Lake neighborhood.

Mostly slushy now. I have to work tomorrow night so I hope it doesn't freeze.

2. We have "extreme" or "exceptional" drought conditions throughout AL ...

... and it's been raining slow the last couple of days. Maybe we can make up our rainfall deficit a little.
