Although weak precipitation cannot be ruled out, any showers on Wednesday are expected to be fleeting. Meteorologists suggest umbrellas may be more of a hindrance than a help due to the gusty wind conditions.

The weather picture changes dramatically on Thursday with the full arrival of Storm Leonardo. Like Wednesday, the sky will remain changeable.
