Today is shaping up to be a 'scorcher' here with the 9AM temp already at 12° and lots of sun.Unfortunately this will not extend into our long weekend here.Rain is to begin late tonight and last all day Saturday and into the evening.Sunday is forecast to be not too bad and then it's back to rain for the holiday Monday.
