Rain and thunderstorm chances will increase later in the afternoon continuing into the evening and overnight. There is a Marginal Risk for severe weather later today.

Tuesday will be a similar day, with some rain chances to the north early in the day, and an increasing threat for showers and thunderstorms later on into the evening. Highs will again be in the 70s to near 80.
