Severe Risk Monday, Heavy Rain At Times This Work Week

Scattered strong to severe storms are possible Monday afternoon and evening as a surface front works across the area.

Moving into Tuesday and through at least Friday, that front will hang around and remain the focus for repeated rounds of showers and storms. With a very moist airmass in place, the rain will be heavy rain times. Areas that see repeated heavy rainfall will see an increasing risk of localized flooding and river rises.

Pay close attention to the forecast as we move through the week, as rainfall amounts and locations impacted are pinned down.
