However, showers and gusty winds are expected to remain over the local area throughout the day and will become less during the overnight hours. Furthermore, some showers may be heavy and can cause minor street-flooding; therefore residents (and visitors) should use caution when traveling through low-lying and flood-prone areas today. A Small Craft Advisory has been issued, and mariners (especially small-craft operators should use extreme caution when traveling through the surrounding open waters.
