Another round of showers moving in from California is expected in Arizona.
Alex Edwards a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Tucson said no major flooding is predicted, but this weekend does call for a 20% to 30% chance of rain in the Southeastern portion of the state.
"By about tomorrow afternoon, mainly late afternoon and through the evening, we’ll see showers move into the Tucson area from the west," Edwards said. "So we are expecting to see an additional round of rain chances for Southeastern Arizona."
Edwards said the storm, already in the Southwest, is moving slowly and will likely take around 24 hours to hit Southeastern regions like Tucson before clearing out on Monday.
