Some very heavy pockets of rain tomorrow morning, maybe even a few rumble of thunder. Most of the rain is going to fall by midday tomorrow but we still could see a few lingering showers so if youre out and about tomorrow afternoon have that umbrella on stand by but also some breaks in the cloud deck for late day tomorrow and then we clear out completely tomorrow night but with that clearing is going to come some cold air. And as i mentioned taking a look at some of our projected rainfall totals from four of or models they deliver a little bit but still pretty significant rainfall as we look through the day tomorrow. Most of that is going the fall by about 10 oclock in the morning.
