That was Ellen with tonight’s news. Good evening, I’m Jenny with this week’s weather report. Although it was sunny today, it looks like a storm is headed in tonight, with rainfall supposed to last until Sunday afternoon. We should expect thunder and lightning tomorrow morning, which will last into late Tuesday afternoon. The rain should let up a bit by Thursday night, although light showers will last through the end of the week. Today, we saw temperatures in the low 70s, but this week, certain areas will reach a low of 45 degrees at night and 50 degrees during the day. With Thanksgiving coming up, there will be a lot of traffic this week as people head to holiday celebrations. Please be careful when driving in the rain, especially in areas that are likely to flood. Have a great week, everyone! Now over to Maria with the traffic report.
