Heaviest rain Friday night and Saturday

A couple of weather systems will affect us during the next 48 hours. The first one will move across the area today. This is a weak system and will bring some rain.  However, later tonight and during the day tomorrow and stronger LOW will be in the area and that one will tap Gulf moisture. That system will crank up the rainfall rates and, with warmer temperatures over the region, some thunderstorms are also likely. Rainfall amounts will total over an inch through the day Saturday. Obviously, with the ground so saturated, any significant amount of rain will cause additional flooding.
