Forecast Discussion

Light rain develops Sunday, beginning as freezing rain, thanks to a upcoming low pressure system. That will eventually lead to moderate rain showers Sunday night that will end Monday morning.

Cooler air filters into the region late Monday as high pressure settles into the Northeast. The cooler temperatures in place make a rain-sleet-snow mix likely for Tuesday night into Wednesday as moisture surges back into our neck of the woods from another low pressure system from the Gulf Coast.

Rain continues for most late Tuesday through Wednesday, and becomes fairly moderate at times Wednesday as the low moves over the region with some decent upper level support.

Temperatures become a notch milder for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Expect the "wash-rinse-repeat" setup for rain latter half of the week as we remain stuck in this pattern.
