A strong area of low pressure is winding up in South Dakota and will produce rounds of showers/storms today into this evening. Some of the afternoon storms could be on the stronger side, especially into lakes country. Rainfall accumulation across the Valley into Lakes Country will be on the order of 1/2″ to 1″

Heavier rainfall will be confined just west of the Valley….unfortunately the Valley into Lakes country will miss out on the heaviest rainfall but 1/2″ to 1″ can be expected.
