Heavy rain late Saturday into Sunday

Periods of heavy rainfall exceeding 2–3 will lead to a risk of minor flooding, especially after midnight Saturday into the very early morning hours Sunday. 

Model trends continue to support the heaviest rain occurring overnight and ending by 7am Sunday.

Cooler, cloudy pattern follows

Behind the front, temperatures drop into the 70s with more clouds and a noticeable decrease in humidity. 

Some lingering showers remain into Sunday and early next week, but the overall trend is cooler and more stable. This pattern keeps skies mostly cloudy at times before gradual warming returns later next week.
