Here We Go Again With More Rain!

Wilton

Upon arising and taking Ike out for his morning constitutional I found the N.O.A.A. prediction of rain had come to pass.  It had just started, and is adding up quickly.  We now have had 0.09 inches this morning bringing our monthly total to 2.14".  That should turn my garden into a bowl of oatmeal.  The weeds are already trying to gain the upper hand, so things need to be tilled.  For today the N.W.S. forecasts rain all day.  Their estimate of the cloud cover certainly supports that (100%/98%/100%/100%).  The NEXRAD regional composite radar shows quite a bit of rain to our south and west, moving in our direction.  The Weather Underground model forecast maps contend that we can expect to see this type of weather through tomorrow.  Tuesday appeared to be a better day with more rain later in the week.  My Weather Stick is as you see it below responding to the 87% relative humidity and 60.9°F temperature.  It seems we can once again post photos to the body of my report, at least I hope so.  http://weather.mainetoday.com/sites/default/files/101_6356.jpgMy digital instruments appear to be confused once again with all three of them forecasting fair skies with rising barometric pressure.  They must be on some sort of hallucinogen.  They did a pretty good job of recording the low temperatures seen here (55.9°F/55.8°F/57.9°F).  I think we can expect to see rain for most of the day today, and maybe tomorrow as well, but that has been my lot for the last four years.  <b>Low Temperature (°F):  </b>55.9    <b>Current Temperature (°F): </b>60.9<b>Relative Humidity (%):  </b>87%    <b>Dew Point (°F):  </b>57.1    <b>Heat Index (°F):  </b>N/A<b>Barometric Pressure (in Hg):  </b>29.96<b>Wind Direction: </b>South Southeast    <b>Wind Speed (mph):  </b>0.0    <b>Wind-Chill (°F): </b>N/A<b>Precipitation (Type): </b>Rain    <b>Amount (Inches):  </b>0.05<b>Cloud Cover (AM): </b>Overcast    <b>Cloud Type:  </b>Stratocumulus<b>Weather Stick: </b>DownComparative data for the overnight.  <b>Temperature:  66°F/70.3°F//58°F/62.6°F//55°F/57.9°F//54°F/56.1°FRelative Humidity:   70%/67%//86%/78%//90%//85%//77%/87%</b>   70%/86%/90%/77%The N.W.S. once again missed a couple of the temperature and relative humidity levels today.  They get demerits again.  Forecast data for today. <b>Temperature:  57°F/61°F/62°F/60°FRelative Humidity: 79%/78%/67%/81%</b>
