When I took the data a few minutes ago he winds were calm, but they have been active all day, ranging from calm up to around 10 miles per hour. N.O.A.A. predicted light rain all day, and it may have showered where you were, but it did not in my area of Wilton Maine. With all the clouds moving through the temperature barely made it to the mid-seventies. It was a good day to be outside though, and I wish I had been. I needed to deal with some plumbing issues. It never fails. Some close-up shots of the progress in the garden follow

For the overnight N.O.A.A. predicts no precipitation, moderate cloud cover (81%/65%/49%/53%) and temperatures as low as the mid-forties. This fits with what is being presented on the NEXRAD composite radar and the Weather Underground model forecast maps.
My Weather Stick is happy with the 63% relative humidity. It is smiling (points up). All three of the electronic instruments forecast rising barometric pressure. The only one that is not forecasting fair skies is the remote weather station, and it forecasts clouds. My best guess is that the blustery wind will continue, and the clouds will continue to move through. I think it will be cool again tonight.
