After a dry end to the week, rain is forecast to return to the region this weekend, according to weather officials.
By the time the rain moves out on Sunday, accumulations are expected to range from 1.5 to 2.5 inches, the National Weather Service said.
The wet weather is anticipated to bring relief from recent dry conditions, but residents are advised to prepare for potential localized flooding in low-lying areas.
Forecasters recommend checking local updates for the latest on rainfall and weather conditions through the weekend.
