Showers and thunderstorms return to the region tonight and Monday. The atmosphere has a lot of water in it, so these storms will be able to produce a LOT of rain over a small area. While some counties might see 3+ inches of rain Monday, neighboring counties might see very little. Keep an eye on the radar tonight and tomorrow, and avoided flooded roads if you encounter them.
Rain showers and potentially a few thunderstorms mainly south of Knoxville can be expected this afternoon and evening. Additional showers and storms are likely on Monday, with storm chances continuing each day through the work week. Some of the storms over the next several days will contain torrential downpours and the possibility of localized flooding.
