This morning was pretty sunny and clear but in the last two hours or so, it has become increasingly cloudy and now there is a near solid cover of light gray high altitude clouds. There was a spike in temperature earlier hitting around 73 °F but the temperature has been slowly declining with the cloud cover. The cause for this was a warm front that passed through quickly and is being replaced with a cold front that has moisture and rain coming from the North/northwest. There is currently a 20% chance the rain will actually fall in our area, but the cloud cover and moisture will be sticking around and raising ground temperatures tonight and into tomorrow. This build up of energy along with combating fronts will likely produce a thunderstorm on Sunday afternoon evening. Can't wait!
