Rain, Rain, Go AWAY!



An area of low pressure is tracking through the east this afternoon, bringing with it rain, cool air, and some severe weather in the south. The rain has added up to 2-3" for a lot of areas in the Mid West, and has dumped locally up to .5" in the east already. And it is continuing to push east, and will leave widespread 1-3" totals (yesterday's map looks good). While these amounts are not enough to cause widespread flooding, they will saturate the ground pretty good, and with another storm expected Sunday-Monday and another one later next week, flooding will be a growing concern. More on those storms later this evening.
