After a couple of days with the sun, the clouds have moved back in today.  And I guess we shouldn’t be too surprised by that fact.  October has been an unusually cloudy and wet month and the National Weather Service compiled some statistics associated with this cloudy trend.  You can check out that article by going to http://www.crh.noaa.gov/news/display_cmsstory.php?wfo=fsd&storyid=34538&source=0

Now we have to get ready for more rain.  A storm system that is going to give places like Denver, CO, 8 to 12 inches of snow, is going to give us the liquid form of precipitation.  Slight chances of rain could be with us as early as this evening with heavier rain moving in later tonight.  Rain is likely for Thursday with Friday looking a bit quieter at this point.  Here’s some of the rainfall accumulation that could be expected with this system:

Rainfall Forecast Through Thursday

The good news for trick-or-treaters is that we’re still expecting dry conditions for Saturday although temperatures are going to be a little on the cool side.
