Overcast skies bring light rain showers by this evening
THURSDAY: The cloudy and cool conditions stick around through Thursday, with a chance for sprinkles to light drizzle for the first part of the day. This comes as moisture will gradually track through the region, but with very dry air in place it will take time for rain to make it to the ground. Current timings have sprinkles/drizzle arriving around noon, with the light rain expected for the evening commute. Any rain will amount to less than .15″ of rain. Afternoon highs will top out in the mid 50s, with winds remaining out of the east up to 9 mph.
TONIGHT: Light rain showers continue overnight with heavy cloud coverage hanging around. Overnight lows will drop into the low 40s with a light breeze out of the east.
EXTENDED: Any rain we see Friday early in the day will be limited to areas along and east of HWY 63. Skies will take some time to clear, with peaks of sunshine arriving late in the day. The overall weather pattern suggests that as we close out October, we will remain on the cool side thanks to a series of upper level disturbances that will constantly track through the region. While Saturday is expected to be dry, Sunday looks to bring a quick shot of rain as a disturbance tracks to our north. Any showers we see will once again be on the light side, with amounts less than .25″.Temperatures look to stay in the middle to upper 50s for highs all the way through the weekend.
