with isolated higher amounts, will be possible in some locations. A
Moderate Risk of excessive rainfall is in effect Thursday into Friday
morning. A new flood watch will likely be needed ahead of this

heaviest rainfall axis will shift. In addition, the threat of a few
strong to severe storms cannot be ruled out during this late week
timeframe. Otherwise, improving weather conditions are expected by
this weekend through early next week, with temperatures climbing into
the lower 90s.
