Another Day Of Transition
We did not have any precipitation overnight. N.O.A.A. did predict scattered rain showers and scattered mixed precipitation overnight, but if there were any, they did not occur here. Further, with the temperature will above freezing I would suspect and the precipitation to be liquid rather than frozen. Our low temperature did occur at about 19:00 hours last night. The other predominant future overnight was the wind. That wind continues to blow out of the west to south southwest this morning.
For today N.O.A.A. continues to predict light scattered mixed precipitation until around noon, after which, they are predicting light scattered rain showers. The temperature is expected to reach a high of 41°F. The cloud cover is expected to increase from 55% to 86% around noontime and then fall to about 60%.
My Weather Stick points down, and with 66% relative humidity that is no surprise at all. My Weather Station Console and Min/Max Thermometer are forecasting partly cloudy skies with improving barometric pressure. The remote weather station is forecasting rain with improving barometric pressure. It appears that the low-pressure system continues to hold on, but high pressure is beginning to build in. I hope every one has completed their preparations for Christmas. I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.

N.O.A.A. missed the mark on both the temperature and relative humidity forecasts. Because the temperature and relative humidity readings are so far from the averages, it must be difficult to predict them.
