After 2 weeks of mainly dry weather things are about to change in a hurry over the next 12 hours. The image posted above is courtesy of the NWS Hydrometeorological Prediction Center and shows predicted rainfall over the next 5 days...it's valid from 7am on Thursday through 7am Tuesday. There's a bullseye of more than 3 inches of rain just East of the Quad Cities. While these totals are certain to shift some as showers/thunderstorms develop over the next few days, the general thinking is that a lot of us will see heavy rain starting Friday and lasting off and on through the weekend.
So far this month we've picked up 1.26" of rain, with ALL of that falling during the first 7 days of April!
