Discussion
Low pressure will head over the Great Lakes region today and it’ll push a couple of frontal systems our way as we close out the work week. A few showers are likely later today, but the main rain threat is coming tonight and there can be a thunderstorm mixed in as well - some of the rain can be heavy at times. Clouds and sun on Saturday ahead of the next low pressure system and a couple of lingering showers are possible to go along with quite warm afternoon temperatures. More rain is likely here from later Sunday into Monday and this next event can also result in some heavy rainfall in the Sunday overnight hours.
