The threat of heavy rains and storms will move eastward through the week.
The lack of precipitation has caused some tributaries of the Mississippi River to dry up, and a nearly 400-mile stretch of the waterway is at extremely low levels.
By Wednesday, some areas that desperately need the rain will have picked up several inches of precipitation."This rainfall will come in handy because a lot of these areas are dealing with exceptional drought conditions and will lead to some improvement," Lewis said. The FOX Forecast Center said the rain would not be enough to restore river legvels, but it will likely stop the waterline from dropping further.
After the early workweek system heads eastward, the next best chance of rain isn't expected to approach until the end of the week.
