The cold front is expected to inhibit stronger storms with most thunderstorms being weak to moderate today. Beyond 10:00 PM a modest chance for rain showers will continue overnight some of which may persist into Sunday morning. Some late season snow cannot be ruled out above 9,000ft in the foothills.
