Increasing rain chances for today

(WWAY) — Increasing rain due to a cold front moving through on Monday.

Another cold front swings through the region today bringing scattered showers and a chance of thunderstorms with highs again in the lower 80s. A few of those storms could be strong at times with a marginal risk of severe weather with the main threat being damaging winds. Behind this cold front… high pressure builds across the region Tuesday and Wednesday bringing a return to dry weather with increasing sunshine and highs reaching the lower to mid 70s Tuesday to the seasonable upper 70s to around 80 next Wednesday. Enough increase in low level moisture Thursday morning could bring back a slight chance of showers with a cold front moving through later this week.

Tuesday: Mix of sun and clouds and cooler. High in the low to mid 70s.
