Some Rain Returns to Start Memorial Day Weekend

Added: 2026-05-22

[00:00:01]ALL OF THAT, SAID RANDI RICO.

[00:00:03]LET’S TALK ABOUT THIS FORECAST BECAUSE THE RAIN HERE DON’T GENERALLY HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT.

[00:00:10]I MEAN, UNLESS YOU’RE CURRENTLY IN THE RAIN, RIGHT?

[00:00:12]SO PORTIONS OF BROWN, ADAMS COUNTY, BRACKEN, MASON, ROBERTSON COUNTIES, THOSE ARE THE AREAS WHERE THE STORMS ARE.

[00:00:18]THE SHOWERS ARE GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT STUBBORN THIS MORNING.

[00:00:21]BUT EVERYWHERE ELSE, THE RAIN HAS ALREADY MOVED OUT.

[00:00:24]SO YOU CAN SEE THIS IS A ONE HOUR TIME LAPSE.

[00:00:27]AND THE RAIN SHOWERS ARE JUST KIND OF PERSISTING FROM HILLSBORO TO MOUNT HOREB, DOWN IN TOWARD FALMOUTH AND AREAS TO THE SOUTH AND EAST.

[00:00:34]AND THIS IS GOING TO BE A VERY SLOW PROGRESSION.

[00:00:37]KIND OF ANNOYING IF YOU ARE TRYING TO PLAN OUTDOOR ACTIVITY FOR THE KIDS HERE.

[00:00:41]MAYBE FOR THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL TO THE SOUTH AND EAST, BUT IN MANY LOCATIONS IT’S DRY NOW AND WE’LL STAY DRY AS WE GO THROUGH THE DAY.

[00:00:50]SO IN THE MORNING, THE RAIN SHOWERS, STAYING FOCUSED HERE TO THE SOUTH AND EAST AND GETTING OUT OF TOWN BEFORE NOON.

[00:00:58]AS FAR AS YOUR LONG HOLIDAY WEEKEND GOES, TOMORROW IS A WEATHER IMPACT DAY.

[00:01:02]I DON’T ANTICIPATE MUCH IN THE WAY OF THUNDERSTORMS, BUT STEADY RAIN ARRIVING AROUND LUNCHTIME AND STICKING AROUND WELL INTO THE EVENING.

[00:01:11]SATURDAY.

[00:01:12]SOME SCATTERED RAIN.

[00:01:13]I THINK SATURDAY IS PROBABLY THE DRIEST DAY OF THE FOUR, AND THEN SUNDAY, MORE SCATTERED RAIN, MAYBE A THUNDERSTORM.

[00:01:21]MEMORIAL DAY SECOND HALF OF THE DAY, RAIN WILL PICK UP AGAIN.

[00:01:25]SO AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE FUTURECAST, YOU CAN SEE JUST SOME STUBBORN SHOWERS TO THE SOUTH AND EAST.

[00:01:32]MOST PLACES WE’RE LOCKED IN WITH THE CLOUDS FOR MOST OF THE MORNING AND INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON.

[00:01:37]OUR TEMPERATURES TODAY WILL MAKE IT TO THE MID 60S, AND THEN WE GO INTO YOUR FRIDAY.

[00:01:44]FRIDAY STARTS OUT DRY.

[00:01:46]WE’LL HAVE CLOUDY SKIES.

[00:01:47]YOU’LL NOTICE THE HUMIDITY GOING UP AS WE CREEP TOWARD LUNCHTIME.

[00:01:51]SO BETWEEN ABOUT 10 A.M. AND NOON, WE’LL START TO SEE RAIN SHOWERS DRIFTING IN.

[00:01:56]SO THIS IS SHOWING AN ARRIVAL TIME TO DOWNTOWN RIGHT AROUND MIDDAY.

[00:02:01]AND THEN THE RAIN FILLS IN AND EXPECT STEADY SHOWERS IN THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

[00:02:06]SO IT COULD BE A LOT LIKE YESTERDAY WHERE NOTHING WAS EXCEPTIONALLY HEAVY IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE DAY, BUT WE WERE DEALING WITH THE RAIN SHOWERS AND THAT WILL BE THE CASE ON INTO FRIDAY EVENING.

[00:02:17]HERE’S 8:00 AND CONTINUING INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS ON SATURDAY.

[00:02:21]SO SATURDAY, I THINK YOU HAVE A LOT OF DRY TIME.

[00:02:24]YOU NEED TO BE PREPARED, HAVE RAIN GEAR WITH YOU BECAUSE EARLY IN THE MORNING WE’LL HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF RAIN AROUND.

[00:02:30]AND I THINK AS WE HEAD INTO THE AFTERNOON, KIND OF SOME HIT AND MISS SHOWERS EXPECTED, BUT THERE WILL BE DRY TIME ON SATURDAY AND MORE OF THE SAME, ESPECIALLY FIRST HALF OF THE DAY ON SUNDAY.

[00:02:42]SO FOR TODAY, TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR 12 HOUR FORECAST, GRAY SKIES AND TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW TO MID 50S THROUGH THE MORNING.

[00:02:50]WE’LL HIT THE MID 60S THIS AFTERNOON.

[00:02:52]AND TAKING A LOOK AT YOUR SEVEN DAY FORECAST HERE FOR TODAY, 66 DEGREES.

[00:02:57]BUT FOR MOST OF US TOTALLY DRY FRIDAY WEATHER IMPACT DAY RAIN, MAYBE A FEW THUNDERSTORMS EMBEDDED IN THAT.

[00:03:02]AND OF COURSE THE REDS ARE BACK HOME TOMORROW NIGHT TO START A SERIES AGAINST THE CARDINALS.

[00:03:07]IT DOES LOOK LIKE STEADY RAIN SHOWERS THROUGH THE EVENING, SO KEEP THAT IN MIND FOR FRIDAY NIGHT’S GAME, AND YOUR PLANS OVER THE WEEKEND WILL BE IMPACTED BY RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS, BUT NOTHING’S A TOTAL WASHO
