THIS WEEKEND
We are tracking an area of low pressure from the Gulf of Mexico that will head our way this weekend bringing us some rainfall. Right now Saturday should be dry with clouds thickening up. Looks like we increase our chances for showers to arrive Sunday evening and continue throughout most of Monday (Halloween).
