Wicked weather wracked the North Country on Wednesday, and we will be dealing with more of that bad behavior from Mother Nature again today. 

A cold front will slowly push through the area from west to east, and that will cause another flare-up of showers & thunderstorms.  Some of those storms could again be on the strong side with locally heavy downpours, frequent lightning, small hail, and potentially damaging wind gusts.

A *FLASH FLOOD WATCH* is in effect through Friday morning.  A quick 1-2" (or more) of rain could fall as these thunderstorms fire up today.

The cold front will move off to the east tonight, but stall out right near the coast.  A disturbance will ride up this front, forcing the rain back in our direction.  That disturbance will also stall out - right over the northeast - for much of the holiday weekend, keeping it showery, breezy, and cool.

We should be able to salvage the 3rd day of the 3-day holiday weekend.  Memorial Day, on Monday, will be warmer with a return of sunshine.
