The End Of Autumn Color, Freeman Township
Those puffy cumulus clouds have been moving in all afternoon. Around 10:00 hours there were some cirrus clouds passing over, and the cumulus followed them making it mostly cloudy to overcast by 17:00 hours. N.O.A.A. did not do badly with their forecast since we had no precipitation, the temperature made it to 51°F by 14:00 hours then dropped to 49.1 by 17:00 hours, the cloud cover was much higher than 58% and the relative humidity stopped at 48%. I will therefore give N.O.A.A. a grade of 75, and that is a C.
For the overnight N.O.A.A. predicts no precipitation, temperatures falling to 32°F, the cloud cover reaching 64% by 02:00 hours then decreasing to 59% by 05:00 hours and the relative humidity increasing to 91% from 64%. Again, a good forecast if it is accurate.
My Weather Stick points up and we all know what that means. The Weather Station Console and Min/Max Thermometer predict fair skies overnight. All three electronic instruments are predicting improving barometric pressure. The remote weather station predicts some clouds and some fair skies. My guess is a cool night with a possibility of frost, and possibly some partly cloudy skies.
