Last Map Update: Wed, Sep 9, 2026 at 10:04:39 am CDT

Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms will remain possible today through Thursday, but a noticeable increase in coverage is expected Friday and Saturday. Numerous showers and storms could bring locally heavy rainfall, dangerous lightning, and gusty winds, with isolated to scattered flash flooding possible, especially in urban and poor drainage areas. Continue to monitor the forecast as we get closer to the weekend.
Changing up the story just a bit here... Rain is very likely over the next several days. Total amounts won't be a problem, but the rain will help keep daytime highs and heat index numbers in check.
