WE ARE STARTING OUT WITH SOME MIST, SOME DRIZZLE OUT THERE. WE’VE HAD SOME CLOUDS THIS MORNING, SOME FOG, THE WHOLE NINE YARDS. BUT RIGHT NOW WE ARE STARTING TO SEE MOST OF THE SHOWER ACTIVITY LIFTING OFF TO OUR NORTHEAST. SO WE SHOULD SEE DRYING CONDITIONS OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS AS A WARM FRONT PULLS AWAY. NOW AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT LATER THIS EVENING, WE ARE EXPECTING SOME HEAVY RAIN AND POSSIBLY SOME STRONGER STORMS.
