Minor win salvaging a day today with nothing more than early drizzle.

Thinking between tomorrow and Saturday one of those will be half decent.

 

 

Tell us when things go to complete hell again and I'll be interested. Somewhat hell doesn't cut it....

67F, Decent sunset...

Another round of showers and thunderstorms are approaching from the west this morning and should cross the area over the next few hours. We should see a break in the showers this afternoon before more shower chances tonight and tomorrow morning. We finally dry out by later tomorrow and should see great weather on Sunday and Monday.

Bottomed out at 61 this morning and it's currently an overcast and humid 69, with dp 68.  Don't know how well that line will hold together but it looks pretty rough!
