00:00You're in the thick of it with some rain in Minneapolis-St. Paul.
00:03Not necessarily anything too crazy as far as heavy downpours.
00:07We definitely have some yellows mixed in there, but it's just a dreary, gross day.
00:12And you've already had at least one yesterday.
00:14And plot twist, not really.
00:18You're going to have another one as we head into tomorrow before this finally moves out of there.
00:23Not just in Minnesota, but kind of Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin.
00:27This is where you're just getting round after round of rain because of where that low pressure sits.
00:32Taking a look, we have had some downpours.
00:34Last 24 hours, Des Moines getting significant rainfall, more than an inch and three quarters, getting closer to two inches
00:40there.
00:41We had some downpours west of Omaha here.
00:44Radar estimated more than two inches here, though exact totals can vary a little bit from the radar estimate.
00:51Close to an inch and a half in Kansas City.
00:54We have the stripe of some of the heavier rain heading into Wisconsin as well, though about a quarter of
00:59an inch so far in Green Bay.
01:01As we look ahead to tomorrow, well, our area of low pressure, it shifts just into Wisconsin.
01:07So we're just moving really one state east here.
01:09Not a lot of progress as far as where the rainfall is.
01:13The rain out ahead of the cold front, that's going to shift into the Ohio Valley and then down into
01:18the southeast.
01:19Jeff was talking about the thunderstorms there.
01:21Let's take a look at future radar and take a look at the northern side of the storm system.
01:26So we get round after round in Green Bay.
01:28And keep in mind, the orientation of the rain, maybe not what you would expect or the direction that it's
01:33coming from, maybe not what you would expect because it's circulating around that low pressure, that counterclockwise circulation, not necessarily
01:40moving west to east with the cold front like what we're seeing in the Ohio Valley.
01:44So Wednesday, 6 a.m., Detroit, Columbus, Cincinnati, Indianapolis kind of past that point.
01:50Louisville, you're going to be in the thick of it with some heavy downpours, so be ready for a slower
01:54morning commute.
01:54Some of that traffic we're seeing in St. Paul, you could be next, that's for sure.
01:59Now, it's going to take some time to really get rid of the rainfall somewhere like Minneapolis, somewhere like Duluth.
02:05By 7 p.m., here we are.
02:07I mean, Cincinnati, you're done with the rain at this point, but we're still seeing rounds further to the west
02:13because of that low pressure.
02:14Thursday, we start to see the problem more, just Wisconsin, Michigan.
02:18Michigan, you're the lone holdout with some showers that continue even into Friday once the system's almost out of parts
02:25of the northeast at this point.
02:26It's just the positioning of that core of the storm system.
02:28I do want to highlight the temperature change that we're seeing, too, a little bit of a cool down behind
02:33the storm, but still, places like Minneapolis, warmer than we typically would be this time of year.
02:37Meanwhile, somewhere like Rapid City, we're right about in line.
