Forecast Discussion:
High pressure that has been bringing us clear, dry weather for the last several
days is beginning to move away. A low that has been spinning in place over the
midwestern states is making its way into the area. As it approaches, we'll see
clouds on the increase this evening followed by rain starting during the
overnight hours tonight. The rain will stick around through the day on Friday,
tapering to showers overnight into Saturday. Total rainfall should be in the
range of 0.50" to 0.75" once the system moves away and the rain comes to an end
Saturday. The clouds will linger through Saturday evening, but will begin to
break apart Sunday as high pressure begins to move back in and dry us out.
