Today will bring one last taste of summer-like warmth with temperatures reaching a high of 90 degrees. However, this warmth will quickly give way to a soaking rain, starting as early as Sunday evening.
Rain will be heavy at times, with totals expected to range between 1 and 2 inches, and some areas may see even higher amounts. Both the morning and evening commutes on Monday, April 7, are likely to be wet, as waves of showers and storms will persist throughout the day and into the night.
Although severe or damaging wind gusts are not anticipated, there is a chance of stronger storms in select areas between Sunday evening and Monday. Drivers and residents should stay alert for possible localized flooding or gusty conditions.
The weather will take a sharp turn by mid-week. For those who aren’t fond of the heat, a significant cool-down is in store. Wednesday morning, temperatures will dip into the low to mid-30s, bringing the possibility of frost or even a light freeze.
