Please Read

Another solid day of forecasting by yours truly.  I myself saw two distinct series of showers/t-storms roll through the area yesterday.  One around 4:30 and one around 7:00.  And we had a high of 79, off by only one from my prediction.  I think I should work for Miss Cleo and read people's fortunes.

Today is shaping up to be a swell day.  The slow moving cold front that was responsible for yesterday's rain is finally moving out this afternoon and behind it there should be some cooler, drier air waiting for us.  There is a very slight chance of a shower this afternoon, however, with the cold front still lingering (don't be fooled by my weather icon).  It doesn't have much to work with in the way of moisture like it did yesterday, but if it gets just enough, the other elements like daytime heating and the necessary lifting conditions could be in place for a few convective showers or t-storms.  Personally, I don't think we'll have any but I'm not that sure of it to completely rule it out.  Take an umbrella with, it can't hurt you.  Unless you accidently poke yourself in the eye or something.

After today a low pressure from the Great Lakes will bring us cool and unsettled weather over the next few days.  Lots of unpredictability.  I heart it.

Today:  Clouds mixed with sun.  Slight chance of an afternoon/evening storm.  High 81.  Winds W @ 10-16mph.
Tonight:  Possible early evening shower, then clear.  Evening temps in the low 70s down to 61 by morning.  Winds NW @ 6-8mph.
Tomorrow:  Scattered clouds and cooler.  Chance of an afternoon storm.  High 71.  Winds W @ 8-12mph.
