...Widespread Wetting Rainfall Tonight Into Sunday...

.DISCUSSION...

allowing for a more organized line of showers and thunderstorms to
move through. Precipitation will come to an end Sunday night.
Overall rainfall amounts will range from 0.25 to 1.0 inches, with
some locally higher amounts possible in any areas that see
multiple showers/thunderstorms moving through. Winds will
generally be light and variable, then become northwest Sunday
afternoon behind the front. North/northwest winds on Monday will
increase in magnitude, with some gusts 15 to 20 mph expected at
the 20 foot level.
