Overnight we had quite a line of showers go through adding another 0.85 inches of precipitation to our total. We now have over 2 inches of rain for the month, and the month is only half over. According to the weather forecast maps, the cloud cover is supposed to break this morning and become partly cloudy. It is much warmer this morning than it has been over the past several, and it feels more humid as well. I guess the N.W.S has gotten this one right, and therefore so have I. It is nice to get one right once in a while.
The weather instruments have finally gotten onto the same page. The Weather Stick Points down, but with the 90% humidity that should not be a surprise, nor should it indicate anything as far as the weather is concerned. All three of the electronic instruments are predicting rain and a barometer with a tendency to tall. The barometric pressure has fallen since last night, but if it is going to clear, I would expect that to change as the day progresses. For now, I will stick with the National Weather Service Forecast suggesting that the sky will clear as the morning wears on, and the temperature will rise into the high seventies or low eighties.
