We have had quite a bit of rain move through late Saturday and that will continue overnight tonight. We can expect some heavy rain at times, and possibly even a few of thunderstorms. Temperatures overnight will be mild, only falling into the mid to upper 50s, which is well above normal. Don't get used to it. Showers will pick up overnight and continue as we head through Sunday.

Sunday will also be a gloomy and wet day here across the Tri-State. Scattered showers will likely break for a brief time during the middle of the day on Sunday before ramping back up as we head into the afternoon and evening. That means you will need a poncho at the FC Cincinnati playoff match Sunday night as they kickoff at 8 p.m. Outdoor activities on Sunday will be unlikely to last through much of the day because of the rain, but if you were looking for a window it would be between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. From there, we get drenched. Temperatures Sunday will stay seasonal, right around 60°.

Rain will linger overnight into early Monday before tapering off through the day on Monday, but Monday is the start of our coldest air of the season so far. All together, rain totals will likely range between 1 to 2 inches by Monday morning. High temperatures on Monday only look to climb to 48°, with mostly cloudy skies until late in the day.

Overnight into Tuesday will get even colder as temperatures fall into the upper 20s for Tuesday morning. We may not only see frost, but we could have our first hard freeze of the season in many areas. By the afternoon on Tuesday we will only climb into the mid to upper 40s with mostly clear skies, so you will want to get the little ones out early for Halloween Trick-or-Treating.

This is where things get interesting... Here is your 9 First Warning that we could potentially see our first snowflakes of the season, *GASP*, by the middle of this week. Models have trended towards the potential for a few snow flakes or flurries late Tuesday and overnight into Wednesday as we open up the month of November.
