Discussion              

Rain continues for awhile this morning, heavy at times, and then winds down during the mid-day/early afternoon. It becomes very windy on the back side of the departing powerhouse storm system that brought us a lot of rainfall and winds can gust up to 45 mph from a northwesterly direction in the afternoon. This can result in some downed tree limbs and possible. scattered power outages. Temperatures will drop from early day highs in the 60’s to the 40’s by the mid and late afternoon hours. There is a chance for scattered snow and/or rain showers tonight and on Tuesday and then high pressure takes over for a few days and temperatures will remain on the chilly side.
