Quite A Change From Yesterday

This morning's visual

Yesterday turned out to be some day here.The sun was out and it was hot!Temps reached the 30° range in my backyard in the afternoon.There was quite a stiff breeze from the West but that just helped to keep the bugs away.
Overnight the conditions changed dramatically.This morning it is raining and a cool 8°.Clearing is expected later today but it is also expected to remain cool.
