Drizzle and light rain will continue this morning and then decrease for a time this afternoon and evening. Rain will increase again late this evening and/or tonight and continue into the daytime hours on Wednesday.
Moderate to briefly heavy downpours of rain are possible at times with some of the activity during the day on Wednesday. Due to saturated ground conditions and high stream levels, ponding of water and/or minor flooding is possible in low lying areas at times on Wednesday in some parts of the area, especially during or shortly after any periods of moderate to heavier downpours.
Most locations have received around 0.5 inch of rain so far (from yesterday afternoon through 6am today). On average, additional rainfall of 1.5-2.5 inches can be expected through 6pm Wednesday, with locally higher amounts possible in some spots. The majority of the additional rainfall will occur from later tonight into the day on Wednesday. This will bring total rainfall for the event (Monday thru Wednesday) into the 2-3 inch range on average across the area.
Present indications suggest the rain will end from West to East across the area around 6pm on Wednesday.
We will continue monitoring the situation and issue updates as conditions warrant.
