Another three-quarters of an inch to one inch of rain is possible Saturday, bringing the potential for a total of 2 inches of rain from the two-day storm system.
Saturday's high temperature will be around 60 degrees will mostly cloudy skies throughout the day.
The outlook for Halloween on Sunday, Oct. 31 calls for partly sunny skies and a high temperature in the low 60s, and just a slight chance of a passing shower in the morning into the early afternoon.
