Sunday Update: Heavy Rain
Just wanted to alert you (at least, those of you who check the site on a weekend) that some heavy rain and windy conditions are in store for us this evening.
Light rain should begin falling by mid-afternoon Sunday, with heavy, soaking rain to fall—more or less nonstop—from 5 or 6pm Sunday evening to mid-morning on Monday. The rain will then taper off through early afternoon.
Temperatures will actually rise overnight with this storm, from the 40s on Sunday evening to the 50s on Monday morning, so we have nothing to worry about in terms of any frozen precipitation.
Some places could get as much as two inches of rain out of this system, so flooding is a concern. We could even have a rumble of thunder or two on Monday morning!
Temperatures will fall a bit throughout the week, and our next best chance of snow is Thursday night into Friday. (Right now, this Thursday-to-Friday event is looking pretty minor, but it bears close watching. Stay tuned for updates.)
Toward next weekend, we’ll see a return to very cold conditions (highs struggling to reach freezing). Looking into February, the next decent chances of wintry precipitation are on the 2nd and the 6th.
