Well...yesterday was a total washout here.It rained all day and the temp barely made it to 10°.Total reinfall was over 30mm(a millimeter is approx the thickness of a dime).This morning there is a welcome change with warmer temps,12° already, and some sun.There's still a possibility of some showers today and into tomorrow but it will be warmer than originally forecast.
Starting today,I will be putting the 5 day forecast on here as issued on Sunday.It will be interesting to see how much it changes as the week progresses.
