Our morning began with clouds and a few sprinkles.  There has been way too much rain this spring.  It has rained at least 5 out of 7 days of every week since spring began.  I guess I should be thankful that we aren’t dealing with tornadoes and floods that much of the nation is experiencing, but really, couldn’t we get a week of dry weather soon?  We’ve been having to mow the lawn every 4 days, and when you have 2 acres of lawn, it does get a bit too much.  Radar is showing more rain pushing in from the WSW but so far, most is remaining to our south and west.

Right now (11:45 AM), our temperature is 61°F (16°C), the humidity is 80% and winds are from the east at 7 mph.  The dew point is 51°F (11°C) and the pressure is 30.12 in (1020.0 mb) and steady.  Yesterday’s high was 73°F (23°C) and the overnight low was 47°F (9°C).  Averages for this date are 69°F / 48°F.  Sunrise this morning was at 6:05 AM and sunset will be at 9:01 PM.
