FORECAST:

• A few showers were left over early this morning, but the bulk of the rain has moved out of our area.
• Another round of downpours likely fires up this afternoon with heavy rain and lightning the main threats.
• Isolated flooding will be a concern, leaving Anson, Richmond, and Stanly counties under a Flood Watch.
• Highs warm up to near 90, but the heat index will be in the mid to upper 90s.
• A bigger batch of rain likely comes our way overnight, which could last well into Thursday morning.
• This could then lead to more of a flooding risk if the rain is steady enough.
• Thereafter, the downpour threats start to wind down as we head into the weekend.
• Most should be rain-free by Sunday with temps holding in the 80s. A quieter weather pattern comes our way next.
