  • Sunday Night: Strong storms are possible, so if you’re planning on being outside, maybe reschedule that romantic picnic or be prepared to get soaked.

Rain, Rain, Go Away? Not This Weekend!

For those hoping for a sunny escape, sorry to burst your bubble. This weekend is a no-go for sunshine, with meteorologists predicting a good chance of rain and scattered thunderstorms. So, if you’ve got plans, you might want to rethink them unless you’re into getting drenched!
