The rain will taper off late Sunday night. Finalized rainfall totals will be in the 1 to 4 inch range, with many locations picking up 1.5 to 2.5 inches. This system will be all rain for our viewing area, but some wintry weather will be possible in far northwestern and western VA. Some wet flakes could mix in with the rain as it ends north and northwest of Richmond.

Monday will be breezy and colder with highs 45-50. Lows at night will drop into the 20s, with teens possible to the northwest.

Dry weather is expected through the end of the week. Highs will be in the 50s, and lows will be in the 20s.
