Key Message 1…
Chances for rain will stretch until mid-week due to a stationary front stalled to our south. We are under a slight risk (level 2 out of 4) for excessive rainfall tonight and will be under a marginal risk (1/4) for excessive rainfall the rest of the early week. The National Weather Service currently has Athens county under a Flood Watch until Monday at 12 pm, however, consistent chances for rain may cause for this watch to be extended or reissued sometime this week. On the bright side, there should be a small break in the rain on Tuesday and daytime temperatures will remain in the upper-60s and low-70s throughout the week.
