Persistent showers slowly coming to an end

The "underwhelming" rain event made something of a comeback overnight and this morning, at least in Roanoke and locations north and south along the Blue Ridge, where persistent showers moving northward have brought some rainfall amounts in the 1/2 to 1 inch range, locally up to 1 1/2 inches. It's still not the widespread 1-2 inch rain that was expected, but turned out to be not a bad little rain for some areas. The train of showers is slowly diminishing and shifting east, so rain will gradually come to an end as the afternoon progresses, and we might even see a few peeks of sun (I think I've already seen one).
