We are finally getting some much needed rain. We received 0.27″ yesterday, and another 0.35″ overnight.   Radar is showing that it is far from over and that’s good news, although today shouldn’t be a total washout.  We could see a little sun later today along with strong winds.  I hung my Halloween decor out and this happens every time.  If it gets too windy, I’ll just have to go out and rescue them.

Our 8:45 AM EDT temp is 65°F (18°C), the dew point is 62°F (16°C), and winds are from the south at 6 mph.  The pressure is 29.81 in (1009.2 mb) and falling, and we have light rain at this time.  Visibility is 7 miles and the humidity is 88%.  Yesterday’s high was 65°F (18°C) and the overnight low was 64°F (18°C).  The record high for Oct. 6 is 90°F (32°C) set in 1990, and the record low is 26°F (-3°C) set in 1952.  Averages for this date are 64°F / 43°F.
