Wet end to week as rain returns this afternoon

It’s a dry start out the door this morning, but you will want to take an umbrella with you to use in the second half of the day.

Rain showers are likely this afternoon and evening, so remember your umbrella if you are out celebrating cinco de mayo.

Overnight, showers will turn into a steadier rain, which continues throughout most of the day Friday. A few rumbles of thunder are possible Friday, although no severe weather is expected.

River levels will continue to rise, as some areas could pick up over an inch of rain with this system.

Friday night rain turns to lighter showers, and a few showers could linger into early Saturday morning.

After that, the weekend is mostly dry with a jump in temperatures by Sunday.

Next week we’ve got a good stretch of quiet weather and noticeably warmer into the 70s then 80s.

Today: Cloudy with PM showers. High 62.

Tonight: Showers, turning to a steadier rain. Low 50.

Friday: Rain, heavy at times. Thunder possible. High 58.

Saturday: Mostly cloudy. High 62.

Mother's Day Sunday: Partly cloudy. High 68.
