One to 2 inches of rain was common, but some areas saw about 4 inches in three hours.Rain is in the forecast throughout the afternoon."There is a little bit starting to fill in again here in the Gulf of Mexico," Yanez said. "If the atmosphere will recover, these will start to form and we could see heavy downpours again."There is an 80 percent chance until about 3 p.m. The evening rush hour is expected to be wet with a 60 percent chance of downpours.Saturday and Sunday are also expected to be a bit wet.
