Tracking rain, then a big drop in temperatures….Make sure you keep your umbrella handy. We’re tracking a good deal of rain for your Wednesday night and Thursday, all courtesy of a stationary front that’s draped over the area. This weather setup will bring periods of heavy rain our way this evening. A few thunderstorms are possible. Some flooding is also likely in flood prone areas, so keep that in mind. Otherwise, expect cloudy skies and areas of fog. On Thursday, rain will be likely through at least the first half of the day. Then, rain chances will taper by late afternoon into the evening. Temperatures will fall from the 60s in the morning to the mid 50s by afternoon. The clouds will stick around on Friday for a mostly cloudy day. Highs will be in the lower 50s. By Saturday and Sunday, we’re expecting sunshine with highs in the upper 40s and lower 50s!
