The actual front will push through the Miami Valley into Monday, but the rain will fall throughout the day Sunday ahead of the boundary. Unfortunately, this is Mother’s Day itself.
Currently, the rainfall looks to take place throughout the afternoon. However, we are nearly 5 days out and timing will shift. You’ll want to stay with us as the weekend nears for updates on the timing and severity.
