If you didn't receive rain on Monday, don't give up hope just yet! We'll have additional chances for rain later in the workweek due to an area of tropical moisture located in the Gulf of Mexico. While it's still too far out to determine any additional rain estimates, rain chances will be elevated Thursday and Friday.
