Heavy Rain Continues into the Evening with Showers Likely Tomorrow Too

Weather Update – 10:15 p.m. – Wednesday, October 28th

As of 10:00 p.m. Hurricane Zeta had weakened to a Category 1 hurricane over Mississippi. Maximum sustained winds were at 80 mph and the storm is moving northeast at 31 mph. Rapid movement into Alabama and Georgia is forecast for the storm tonight, but we’ll continue to feel impacts from this system and other features well into tomorrow.

TONIGHT
We’ll continue to get a break in the rain now through midnight but steady showers will likely return tomorrow. This is your yearly reminder that falling leaves in rain can often mean the road is as slick as ice! Drive carefully out there tonight and Thursday. Showers will continue into Thursday morning when temperatures are in the lower 60s. Don’t forget to download the new WBBJ Weather app on your Android device or iPhone to stay ahead of the weather where you are!

Temperatures will be falling throughout the day tomorrow so that we’re in the lower to middle 50s during the afternoon. Wind chills will be in the upper 30s just after sunset. With off-and-on showers, it will get windy with a potential for gusts of 30-40 mph. Rain will finally come to an end later Thursday night.
