Clouds will continue to collect with a few possible scattered showers drifting through the state. Nothing of significance, just a pestering of light drizzle to have the windshields on intermittent.
Tonight will be, for the most part, cloudy. As mentioned above a few bothersome light showers may develop. The wind will be light and from the southeast. Lows will anchored in the upper 40s. Right where they should be this time of year.
Wednesday is the changeable day in the forecast. Walking out the door on Wednesday morning and you might not think to bring the rain gear along. Grab the umbrella and rain jacket because you will need it at some point Wednesday afternoon. Showers may be knocking on our doorstep as early as 3pm in western zones of the state. The majority of the soaking weather arrives after 6pm. It will become steadier and stormier as the evening progresses. We can expect as little as 0.50" to as much as 1.25" of water collecting in our rain gauges. Beneficial yes. Inconvenient, most definitely.
The wet weather will be gone by the time Thursday mornings commute is under way and the weather will continue to improve throughout the day.
Friday looks wonderful under mainly sunny skies and right now it looks like we catch a break. A possible coastal storm looks to stay to our south, keeping wet weather at bay for the weekend.
