And it's January, for Pete's sake.  I know! Let's have thunderstorms, heavy
rain and flooding! 

 

Although a little dramatic, that's pretty much what we're in store for
through the weekend!   Here's the wording of the National Weather Service
information from Wilmington:

Hardin, Logan, Mercer, Shelby from 6 AM SAT-1 AM SUN***
