The cloud cover this morning is ominous and threatening. The predicted cloud cover is still in place, and the temperature fell a little less than 4°F. We had no showers here overnight, but then the prediction was for possible scattered showers, therefore N.O.A.A. got this one about as close as one can when predicting the future.
The Weather Underground model forecast map is still predicting that the sky will be clear today. I would like to believe that. N.O.A.A., with their graphical forecast maps predicts a chance of showers early this morning, and that possibility falling as the day progresses. The temperature is predicted to rise from a low of 58°F at 08:00 hours to a high of 67°F. N.O.A.A. finally forecasts the cloud cover to fall from 85% to 66% late this afternoon. That does not inspire confidence in their prediction regarding rainfall today.
My Weather Stick still points down responding to the 92% humidity, and potentially predicting more inclement weather. The Weather Station Console and Min/Max Thermometer still predict deteriorating barometric pressure with inclement weather. The remote weather station still forecasts clouds. At this point, I am not sure what to believe. My best guess is that we are stuck with unsettled weather. I looked at the NEXRAD radar, there is a significant amount of rain to our west that looks like it is poised to move into Maine, and may well affect us in the next few hours. The Weather Underground map predicts that it will transfer its energy to the storm east of us and pass south of us. Can we say confused?
