The dog days of summer. Starting with a Saturday soaking for many of us.

Worst of this rain classic working out well for lollapalooza timing wise

I’ve never had an August 1st that felt so much like an October 1st.   Clouds racing overhead, cool, gusty NE winds

Let's repeat this low track in a few months from now

Rain always comes in 2 or 3 inch chunks these days

Pretty seasonable wx here in town the next few days with highs in the 70's, and a Lake breeze from the E/NE. Only picked up a few hundredths of rain yesterday as it petered out. Next chance looks to be Mon night into Tues morning.
