We’re wrapping up the day for you with the most important stories you need to know and your weather outlook. 

Your Weather Planner

Our weather pattern remains unsettled through Wednesday until the storm system departs off to the northeast. It won't take much more rainfall to prompt flood advisories or flood warnings due to excessive runoff over a short period of time. Areas that will be most prone to flooding will be those in low-lying and poor drainage locations.

A ridge of high pressure builds in later in the workweek, allowing for lower rain chances and a preview of summertime heat. Highs across the region will be near 90 degrees.
