Overnight temperatures drop into the 60s

Light rain has worked its way into northern Miami Valley, but should taper off from west to east around midnight or early morning, Storm Center 7 Chief Meteorologist Jamie Simpson said.

Overnight temperatures will drop to about 60 in the morning with a dry start to the day. While Saturday looks to be fairly cloudy, the chance for additional rain should be limited to a few light passing showers.

"The treat of any thunder and lightning looks next to nothing. In fact, the rain coming so much earlier than first thought is actually a good thing overall for tomorrow and Sunday as the bum of the moisture that can produce rain will already be by us," Simpson said.

Due to the clouds, Saturday's afternoon high is back into the upper 70s.

Sunday should feature a bit more sun, and temperatures should eclipse 80 degrees, Simpson said.

"While a shower can't be ruled out Sunday, rain chances are low," he said. "As the warmth and humidity build early next week, we have additional chances for showers and storms."

A few pop-up storms are possible Tuesday with highs in the upper 80s.

Storms look likely by Wednesday evening, if not in the afternoon, Simpson said.
