This morning’s water vapor image, courtesy of Weathertap.com, shows the big swirl over the CO Rockies. This will continue to move slowly east over the next couple of days. Surface low pressure will organize over the lower MS Valley tonight and move north into Indiana Sunday afternoon and evening. After a beautiful Saturday, clouds will increase tonight and widespread rain and thunderstorms will arrive Sunday morning. With a deep Gulf connection, expect heavy rainfall, as well. Much cooler air will then take over next week- jackets will be needed!
Before the rain and storms move in Sunday, be sure to enjoy the weather today- lots of sunshine and lower 80s!
