Now
At 6 am...the National Weather Service Doppler radar indicated areas of patchy light rain and a few isolated showers extending over portions of the four state area. Movement was to the northeast near 30 mph. Expect patchy rain and showers to slowly increase across the area over the next two hours. Isolated rainfall amounts will generally range from a just a trace...to a few hundredths of an inch...through 8 am. Morning travelers should allow extra distance for braking as this light rainfall may mix with Road oils to cause slick spots.
