We did not see the sunrise this morning because of the presence of the fog and clouds. Overnight we had another 0.05 inches of rain. Right now, it is just foggy, but that should lift later this morning to be replaced with clouds and rain according to N.O.A.A.

A Foggy Day In Wilton Town
Overnight they did predict rain, and it appears they got that right. The temperature did not go below freezing this morning as was predicted.
For today, N.O.A.A. predicts rain this morning tapering to showers this afternoon and their cloud cover forecast (90%/88%/85%/63%) supports that probability. From the forecast it appears that we may actually get into the low fifties today for our high temperature. For the next couple of months it would be good to have a spot of rain every three or four days. It does not have to be an all day soaker, but a little bit would be very good.
My Weather Stick points down, and with 91% relative humidity we should not be surprised at that. Two of the electronic instruments forecast foul weather with falling barometric pressure. The remote weather station forecasts falling barometric pressure as well, but only clouds as the predominant weather. I suspect that they may well be right. We have clouds with fog right now, and it does appear to be overcast, so rain is not out of the question.

N.O.A.A. was within 5° of the target with the temperature for the overnight. The relative humidity forecast for the overnight did not hit the mark for the first half of the night, but was quite close for the second half. That was a fair job.
