.DISCUSSION...
A change in the weather pattern over the next few days will
result in widespread cloud cover and precipitation, as well as
cooler temperatures for most of southcentral. A band of
precipitation will move from west to east tomorrow, however most
rainfall will be light in nature. The best chance for wetting rain
starts Friday afternoon into Saturday as a steady band of
precipitation forms across southcentral.
