Tonight – Off & On Drizzle
As you can see from the above radars, what little rain we have is coming from the south. Expect off-and-on, mostly “off,” drizzle and light showers tonight.

Poncho up, y’all. We’ll need them through the next few days. Today will be the “driest” day through Wednesday.
As you can see, the rain blob is SW of us, spinning around that low pressure center. That NE appendage is what’s going to deliver us our rain today.

A moisture plume remains stretched from Mexico to Tennessee. Most of our atmosphere is saturated (precipitable water is two standard deviations above normal), but at the low levels, there’s still a little dry air. As a result, some rain visible on radar is only hitting the ground as sprinkles or light rain.

A corridor of rain stretches from San Antonio to Nashville this morning, but the worst of it is in Texas.
Morning rain should be light and sporadic. The HRRR model thinks rain coverage will increase by noon through early afternoon, then switch back to a light, sporadic, mostly “off” pattern tonight:

We are clouding up, but we don’t think we will see rain until after midnight, as rain approaching from Arkansas breaks up a bit, but still kicks off a rainy weekend:

We’ll be cooling off nicely by this evening.
Skies will remain mostly clear overnight, with lows dropping to the low 50°s.
By tomorrow, we’ll be keeping a close eye on the system to our west that’s dropping a whole lot of rain in Texas today. As that system slowly starts to move east Friday, our rain chances will start to slowly rise.

We’ll be warming a little each day. Maybe a light jacket in the morning, but you’ll want to lose it in the afternoon, or at least do what I did in Jr. High: tie it around your waist. Got to be hands free for touch football.
