KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) - A cold front is bringing us rain and a few thunderstorms throughout Monday. This front will also bring us a much-needed break from the heat!

Highs will only get near 71 degrees Monday afternoon with the on and off rain and storms throughout the day. The majority of the rain falls throughout the morning hours and becomes more scattered by the afternoon. This cold front will bring most of us a good inch of rain.
