A Lake Wind Advisory is in effect today from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Unsettled weather returns on Wednesday and continues through the weekend with daily chances of showers and thunderstorms. Heavy rainfall and localized flooding remains the main concern with total rainfall between 1 to 3 inches on average.
