Those mare's tails and mackerel scales took all morning to expand and cover the sky, but by 13:00 hours, we had overcast skies. We have had no rain at this point, but it would not surprise me to see some before the evening is over. The temperature did exceed the forecast from N.O.A.A. by a few degrees, but we do not have any rain. The humidity seemed to be up a little bit also, since it felt a bit warmer while I was cutting and splitting my wood. Lawn will wait until tomorrow or Thursday. I have several more cord of wood to get in before I will be ready for the winter, which is coming.
N.O.A.A. forecasts rain from around 20:00 hours until about 02:00 hours tomorrow morning, and clearing by 05:00 hours. The Weather Underground model predicts some possible rain this evening, but clearing by morning as well. My weather instruments seem to be a bit more confused. The Weather Stick points slightly up indicating unsettled weather. The Weather Station Console predicts a falling barometer with rain, while the Min/Max Thermometer predicts a falling barometer with mixed clouds. The remote weather station just predicts clouds. I think, from what I see, we will have unsettled weather with a chance for some rain showers, and I hope it will clear by morning.
