This will increase a bit as we get into the evening.<\/li>\n<li>Showers and a few thunderstorms then show up Friday night and early Saturday with the heaviest rains in the southeast. A quick 1&#8243;-2&#8243; of rain may show up in this area, causing some local issues.<\/li>\n<li>After a breezy and mild break Saturday afternoon, rounds of showers and storms return Saturday night and take us through Sunday night.<\/li>\n<li>Very heavy rainfall is likely during this time and this may cause flooding and flash flooding issues to develop.<\/li>\n<li>The greatest risk for flooding appears to be along and south of the Interstate 64 corridor.
