• Rain has started and will be with us all day long. It will get heavier as we head into the afternoon.
• There is a Flood Watch in place from Charlotte to the south, but the greater flooding risk is south of our area today.
• That being said, it still bears watching as streams and creeks are going to be running high and nuisance flooding is possible in poor drainage areas.
• Severe weather risk quite low with that main threat also staying well south of our area.
• Some brief strong winds are possible this evening as the last line of rain pushes through.
• Dry weather moves in tonight and stays with us through the rest of the week with temps remaining near or above 60 degrees.
