"Storms Friday and Sunday are trending stronger," said Nicco. "I'm keeping them a 1-Light on the Storm Impact Scale for now. That will likely change if successive forecast outputs keep the heavier rain. And with the ground now saturated in some areas, weaker storms are likely to down more trees and flood more areas."
