Moulton, Rogersville, Town Creek, Littleville, Lexington, Leighton,
Courtland, North Courtland, Hillsboro and Anderson.
Little additional rainfall is expected in portions of eastern
Lauderdale, Lawrence or western Limestone Counties for the remainder
of the day. However, rain is expected to move back into the area
tomorrow.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood
deaths occur in vehicles. Also, the road bed may be washed out under
the water, and you could be stranded or trapped.

interested parties should take necessary precautions immediately.
