Better enjoy the sunny weather on Monday.

The Tri-Cities has another rainy week ahead with two storm systems expected to cross the Mid-Columbia.

Temperatures should be mostly above freezing, causing precipitation to fall as rain rather than snow, the National Weather Service predicts.

Two weather systems are expected to stage near Alaska, before moving south and across the Pacific Northwest, according to the weather service.

Rain is likely Tuesday and Tuesday night in the Tri-Cities, followed by a 50 percent chance of rain on Wednesday.

Cloudy skies should clear some on Friday, but the day is not expected to be as sunny as the start of the current week.

More rain is predicted for the weekend as another storm system moves over the Tri-Cities, according to the early forecast of the weather service.
