This spring-forward weekend will be a rainy one: According to Accuweather, "Streams and rivers already rising from melting snow and spotty rain into Friday will surge markedly over the weekend, leading to significant flooding in low-lying, unprotected areas. The storm at hand this weekend is the latest in a series of storms during the winter of 2010 to foil plans, slow travel, disrupt power, cause damage, and tax budgets." That's right, Mother Nature is plotting against us again!
There is a flood watch and there may be winds up to 50 MPH. The worst of it is expected to be tomorrow night, and the rains could continue through the weekend and into Monday.
