A few strong storms to start the weekend

We've had a cloudy end to the work week, only seeing a few peaks of sunshine during the late hours of the morning.  Showers and thunderstorms moved in during the afternoon, but the thunderstorms have since died down.  A few heavy rain showers still remain, but the count for those will go down as we go through the overnight as we'll mostly see Light to Moderate rain showers.  Those showers will continue through the morning, before thunderstorms return during tomorrow afternoon.


Most areas can expect to see right around three-tenths of an inch of rain by tomorrow morning.  However, some places up north will be a little over half an inch as a stationary front allowed for more showers up to the north.



 We are under a Marginal Risk for severe weather tomorrow during the late afternoon and evening hours.  The Stateline will be seeing scattered, heavy rain showers with a few thunderstorms, but the stronger thunderstorms will stay down south.  However, some of these stronger storms will skim the southern portion of our viewing area.  We can expect strong wind gusts from those storms, along with heavy downpours.  Most places across the Stateline can expect between 1-2 inches of rain total by Sunday morning, but a few places up north have the chance of seeing more rain as that stationary front will stay active.

Winds will pick up quite across the Stateline during the overnight Saturday night as the low pressure system closes into our area.  Everything will calm down after 1am Sunday morning, with only a little bit of lingering light rain through Sunday morning.  Afterwards, we'll have a nice end to the weekend with partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the upper 50's for Sunday afternoon.

Temperatures will be mild to start the work week in the low 60's, but we'll warm back up to the low 70's once we get closer to the end of the week.
