An unsettled weather pattern returns Tuesday and Wednesday as a slow-moving system brings multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms. Tuesday will feature periods of rain through the day, with thunderstorms becoming more widespread potentially during the afternoon and evening. Some storms could produce heavy downpours, frequent lightning, and locally gusty winds.

The storm threat continues Wednesday. While there will be some breaks in the rain, additional showers and thunderstorms are expected, especially during the afternoon. Rainfall from both days may lead to localized ponding on roadways and reduced visibility during heavier downpours.
