The chance of showers continues tonight before a break overnight and then some more organized rain is likely to move in before morning as we cool down to a low in low double digits.

Mostly cloudy skies with a slight chance of showers will linger on Thursday as the system pulls off further to the east, before another disturbance ripples through Friday, bringing a risk of thunderstorms later in the day.
Daytime highs are expected to rebound, back into the low 20s for the rest of the week with morning low possibly slipping back into single digits.
