There will be a break from the rain in the late afternoon, but scattered showers redevelop after 5PM and could last overnight. Sunshine peaks through for the beginning of Thursday, but wet weather returns for the weekeend.
Futurecast 6PM - Scattered showers and storms redevelop in eastern Oklahoma. These will push through the River Valley throughout the evening.
