Brian Davis,

WBBJ 7 Forecast Update:

Rainfall has stacked up over the last 24 hours with with bands for rain and scattered storms and more rain is expected today. We’ll likely pick up an inch or more through today with heavier totals in isolated storms.

THE WEEKEND:

The weekend will be a little bit more humid than that work week. The winds will come out of the south and that will keep our morning temperatures in the low to mid 70s. Highs will also reach the mid 80s this weekend and a couple upper 80s cannot be ruled out. The heat and humidity will also lead to more pop up showers and storms. Chances for rain this weekend looks higher on Sunday than on Saturday but each day the chances are between 40-60%.

If you have weekend plans and are hoping to beat the rain, it probably will not happen. Severe weather or big storms are not likely, but expect to be dealing with showers at times. Skies will be mostly to partly cloudy at times all weekend long.
