A lead shortwave is expected to eject northeastward Thursday night into Friday morning bringing a round of heavy rain and thunderstorms to portions of the area. Additional rounds of thunderstorms will develop across the area on Friday and continue until a front finally clears the area out Saturday afternoon/evening.
