Rain will be heavy at times throughout the day today. There will also be breaks between the bursts of rain, however. Evening downpours come with the passing front that may force strong thunderstorms to develop, which includes damaging winds and a chance for tornadoes.

Rainfall totals are likely between 1 and 2 inches. There can be selected areas that see slightly higher amounts. There is also a risk of flooding today, but it’s localized to the downpours.

Rain wraps up tonight and improves tomorrow. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are fair days with sun and mild temperatures in the 70s.
