A delightful Friday was had! So much so, it may have been the best day of the holiday weekend! Today was filled with sunshine and comfortable temps across the state ahead of consistent rain throughout the weekend. Tonight's clouds and cooler overnight lows set the stage for cooler and wet weekend.

Rain arrives early Saturday morning as light rain then intensifies after 3 p.m. until Sunday morning. Total rain accumulations to exceed 2" statewide.

The unofficial start of summer feels like an unwanted fall-like weekend! Shockingly, highs of low to mid-50s echo Thanksgiving Day highs! Thankfully, Memorial Day Monday looks pleasant with less rain chances and seasonable as temperatures rise closer to 75 degrees.

Next week, another warmup is expected as highs reach the upper 70s and 80s.
