Tonight, expect scattered showers and thunderstorms before 10 p.m.
“Some of the storms could produce gusty winds,” according to NWS. “Partly cloudy, with a low around 66. Northwest wind 8 to 11 mph. Chance of precipitation is 40%.”
There was a flash flood warning issued yesterday, and it led to some light flooding.
