Rain is definitely arriving Thursday. For SunFest goers, the key questions are how much and when?

A cool front coming in from the north will stall out over the area that will likely bring afternoon showers that will continue into the evening in Palm Beach County.

With SunFest opening its doors for the four-day festival at 5 p.m., Thursday, that could make for a soggy and muddy start.

But it isn't going to be a total washout and your best bet will be to bring a rain poncho you can fold up and fit in your pocket or the traditional umbrella.
