Pwats approach the 2" mark Friday through the weekend as a stalled frontal boundary sets the stage for multiple rounds of thunderstorms with heavy rain. The exact location of where the heaviest rain may set up is still unknown and will likely be hard to pin down until 24-36 hours out. Overall, QPF totals look to be highest across south central Minnesota and western Wisconsin, particularly for the second half of the weekend into early next week. Two/three day QPF totals may approach 3"+, with locally higher amounts.
