A rainy end to October will continue into early November, according to the National Weather Service. Drier, cooler conditions will continue until late Saturday, before a series of rain showers settle into the region. Periodic rainfall is expected throughout most of Sunday, Monday, and into Tuesday afternoon. A total of two-to-three inches of rainfall is likely across most of the area over the three-day period. No severe weather is expected. This comes as most of the area remains abnormally dry in the latest U.S. Drought Monitor Report — with some pockets of drought. The heavy rain that fell on Wednesday was not included in the latest update and will be tallied next week.
