Rain Exits Soon and Cooler Temperatures

Rain has made quite the presence across the Stateline since Thursday night, as some spots have picked up over an inch of rain. The heavy downpours allowed for these locations to pick up the rainfall quickly, with Stockton seeing the most rain in a short time period of over 3 inches! Rockford picked up a little over an inch of rain, and Freeport picking up just an inch.


The isolated showers will continue for this evening and overnight.  With all the moisture content, patchy fog will develop overnight, some of which will be dense, so do be cautious when out on the roads late tonight.

Most of Saturday will have isolated showers still pushing through, but once we get into late afternoon some drier air will start filtering in from the north, pushing the rain out of the area.  This will help us stay mostly dry for Saturday night, and even stay dry for the rest of the weekend.  However, the low's presence will still allow for cloudy skies through Sunday evening.


Once we get into the work week, sunshine will return as the drier air will keep filtering into our area.  This will also keep temperatures more mild heading into next week, staying around 80° towards the beginning of the week, but warming back into the mid 80's by Tuesday.
