A storm could bring a month’s worth of rain on Wednesday

There are two things you won’t have to hear on Thursday.

One is “I’m hungry.”

The other is: “We’re in a drought.”

The National Weather Service says that a storm coming up from the Gulf of Mexico that will begin to be felt here tonight is packing strong winds and heavy rain, and even the potential for some light snow.
