Showers continue overnight; more rain chances Tuesday

The severe weather threat is winding down across the area this evening and overnight. A few lingering showers will continue across the area providing some more much-needed beneficial rainfall across the region. Overnight lows will fall into the upper 50s and lower 60s.

Another round of scattered showers and storms is possible Tuesday, although coverage is expected to be more limited. Highs will again top out in the 70s.

Rain chances diminish further on Wednesday, with only isolated showers in the forecast. Temperatures will stay seasonable in the 70s.

A more widespread round of showers and thunderstorms returns on Thursday, with highs continuing in the 70s. Overnight lows through the rest of the week will hold steady in the 50s.

Rain may linger into Friday before a drying trend sets in heading into the weekend. There remains a small chance of showers Saturday if the departing system moves out more slowly than anticipated.

Looking ahead to Mother's Day weekend, conditions appear to improve. Highs on Friday will hover near 70 degrees, rising into the low to mid-70s Saturday and warming to the upper 70s to near 80 by Sunday. Sunday is shaping up to be the warmer and drier day of the weekend, perfect for any outdoor Mother's Day plans.

Additional rain chances may return by the middle of next week, with daytime highs remaining in the 70s.
