We started out with some overcast, but that quickly cleared and we have had a beautiful day to do anything outside. I did some work in the barn, since it is time to clean stalls again. Then this afternoon it was so great that I went for a bicycle ride. I was quite surprised that I was in better shape than I thought I was. The weight I have lost and the work I have done around here must have done some good. N.O.A.A. got the predominant weather right for today.
For the overnight N.O.A.A. does not see any precipitation. The same is true of the NEXRAD radar and Weather Underground model forecast maps. There may be some light scattered showers close to us by morning, and the cloud cover forecast does indicate that to be the case (13%/13%/44%/69%). They are not supposed to arrive here in Wilton, Maine though.
My Weather Stick continues to smile with 76% relative humidity. My electronic instruments indicate the same forecasts they did this morning with total disagreement. My Weather Station Forecasts fair skies. My Min/Max Thermometer forecasts partly cloudy skies. Finally the remote weather station forecasts cloudy skies. All three of them see the barometric pressure rising. I think we will have another nice night. Enjoy them while we have them.

N.O.A.A. missed the last two temperature forecast points, but they did get the relative humidity quite close. This is actually better than they have done recently.
