While the central and eastern parts of the state remain quiet and dry for now, storms are already invading the west and southwestern portions of the state as we have hit the lunchtime hour on this final Saturday of 2024. Rain is taking place along and west of a line from Carrollton to Demopolis to Coffeeville. For now, none of this activity is strong to severe, but that will change as we get further into the afternoon and evening hours.
