Saturday Soaker. Better Mother’s Day…

 

 

Synopsis:

A storm will ride up the coast this weekend. Today will feature the steady and possibly heavy rain. The best chance of heavy rain is along the I-95 corridor and to the coast. One to two and a half inches of rain is likely. The rain will taper off later this evening to the West and end over Eastern areas by early Sunday morning.

Mother’s Day Sunday continues to look optimistic as the storm will continue to move Northeast. This will result in morning clouds and possibly some showers well east to give way to several hours of sun and clouds. An upper level disturbance will swing through later in the afternoon on Mother’s Day with scattered showers (FutureCast Cloud Cover/Radar above). To reiterate, the day will not be a washout and the sun will shine for a time!  Whew.

Much warmer times are in our future as we head into next week with readings getting well into the 80s.

Stay tuned.
