Chance of rain from the ensemble models

ECMWF (51 scenarios)	37%	74%	66%	8%	8%	2%	4%
GFS (GEFS, 31 scenarios)	3%	89%	65%	23%	13%	0%	6%

Each model's day runs midnight to midnight local time; models that reach fewer days are left blank. Rain: daily total. Wind: the day's highest average wind and, in small type, the strongest gust. Highlighted: values that stand out from the rest. The chance of rain comes from many runs of the same model with slightly different starting data.
