We were pretty lucky today–we dodged some nasty storms to our southwest. PA and NJ got pummeled with heavy rain, frequent lightning, and strong winds. Closer to home, spotty showers expected overnight along with areas of fog. There will be some passing thundershowers tomorrow, so keep an eye on the radar if you have outdoor plans! A couple of isolated storms may be strong with downpours and gusty winds.

A FLOOD WATCH is back up for northern parts of the state. Once again, we could argue that the entire state should be under a watch because are expect a good slug of rain Friday and Saturday morning. In the meantime, clouds will increase this afternoon with some showers popping up. I can’t rule out an isolated storm or two. The rain will become more steady overnight into Friday. Friday will not only be soaking wet, it’ll be much cooler with highs in the mid to upper 50s.
