Thursday
Scattered showers possible early Thursday morning and continuing throughout the day. The best chance for rain is during the evening. Heavy rain and a few rumbles of thunder are possible. Winds may also be elevated gusting to 20mph. No severe storms are expected at this time. Temperatures are expected to rise into the upper 60s. Overall rain chance - 80%.

The Weekend
Scattered showers & thunderstorms will remain possible throughout the weekend. The chance will fluctuate between 40 and 50 percent. Temperatures will also be cooler with daytime highs only in the mid 50s.
REMINDER: Daylight Saving Time begins 2am Sunday morning. This means clocks will advance forward 1 hour. So don't forget to reprogram your clocks Saturday night before bed. Also, this is a good time to change the batteries in your smoke/carbon monoxide detectors and weather radio.
Monday
The chance for rain will continue on Monday with showers being mainly scattered during the morning before a more organized line arrives by the afternoon. Temperatures will be slightly warmer in the upper 50s. Overall rain chance - 50%.
Tuesday
If you're looking for the day with the most dry time this will likely be that day as rain chances look to be low with a few scattered showers. Daytime highs will be in the upper 50s. Overall rain chance - 20%.
Wednesday
Rain chances will increase again starting Wednesday morning and continuing through the afternoon with rain winding down by the evening. Daytime highs will return to the low 60s. Overall rain chance - 50%.
Bottomline
Rain totals are currently ranging around 2 to 3 inches by next Thursday. This could promote areal flooding issues. Avoid flooded roadways at all cost! Turn around, Don't Drown!
On a good note the dry weather and 60 degree temps look to return by the end of next week!
I'll have another update tomorrow evening.
Have a great Wednesday!
