WEATHER STORY: The long drought has us nearly four inches short of rain for the year. There are good signs we could put a dent in it Tuesday and Wednesday as a strong low works our way. It is also going to be capable of giving us strong late season thunderstorms. That makes it possible, too, for decent rain totals as the low slows down over our region and its fronts become quasi-stationary. Wednesday night and Thursday morning, a little light snow may fall as the low leaves and cold air wraps in as is the standard pattern.
SUNDAY NIGHT: The sky will be clear to partly cloudy to start but may finish more mostly cloudy. That will keep low temps warmer than normal so the low temp may be a mild 40. The wind will be E 10-20 mph.
MONDAY: Clouds will be on the increase as the mid-week rain-making low gets closer. Call it partly sunny for sky conditions. The high temp will be warmer than normal yet again at 65. The wind will be SE 10-20 mph.
TUESDAY: The day will be cloudy and the rain chance will rise to 50%. Storms will likely be isolated but still those individual cells could become strong or severe. Best chance for the rain will be the late afternoon, evening and overnight. The high temp will be 63. The wind will be E 5-15 mph…
