A bright start turned into a wet finish. Expect mostly cloudy skies with showers likely to continue through the evening, primarily before 11 p.m. As the storm system pulls away, the rain will taper off and the breezy conditions seen earlier today will subside. Temperatures are forecast to drop into a cool range, with lows settling between the mid-40s and low 50s. Winds will also shift, becoming lighter and moving out of the north after midnight.

Drier conditions move in through the Thursday morning hours, with a mix of sun and clouds expected through the day. Friday is shaping up to be a very nice day, with mostly sunny skies and seasonal temperatures.

Rain will be returning to the region on Saturday, so you may want to push back those outdoor plans towards Sunday. Sunday is Mother's Day, and it will be fairly drier and nicer, by comparison, to be out and about to celebrate the mom in your life. However, rain chances will try to rise late in the day as another system comes through Sunday night and lasts into Monday morning.
