We're not going to make up for an entire summer without rain in one day, but the clouds and precipitation is still welcome today. Accuweather is predicting over a half-inch of rain and a slight chance of thunderstorms today. The clouds may clear in the afternoon to give us a glimpse of sunshine to go with a high in the mid-70s. The rain means we'll also get a feel for some humidity for the first time in a few days.
