Most of the day it remained overcast and very humid. Where I was cutting wood, I was in the clouds until late this afternoon. It was very late this afternoon that some of the clouds broke and the sun came shining through. We have not had sun since Sunday, and it was very pleasant to see Old Sol for a change.
The Weather Underground model map did get it right, and according to the NEXRAD radar, the storms did go south of us, and will probably join with the storm that is in Eastern Canada. N.O.A.A. also got it right, since we had no rain, the temperature reaching a high of 65.1°F and the cloud cover ended between 60% and 70%. For the overnight, the Weather Underground maps forecast clear skies. The N.O.A.A. forecast graphics show fog arriving around 02:00 hours and lasting until at least 08:00 hours, the temperature falling to around 49°F and the cloud cover falling to 49% at 02:00 hours and thickening to 52% by 05:00 hours.
My Weather Stick remains pointed down in response to the high humidity, possibly predicting the continuation of this unsettled weather. The Min/Max Thermometer and Weather Station Console forecast continued deteriorating barometric pressure with rain. The remote weather station forecasts clouds, as usual. My own thought is that the electronic instruments just have not caught up with what is coming for weather. I will forecast the sky clearing and, with the exception of the fog early tomorrow morning, a good day in the offing. I can dream can't I?
