They said that it was going to clear up overnight...Clouds.
They said that it was going to clear up this afternoon...Clouds.

It seems that forecasters are wrong almost all the time these days.

And you'd think that it'd be just the opposite. You'd think that with today's technology forecasting would improve.

Yeah i know, but so far, doesn't look that way. It looks to be intensifying. I believe that we
might actually get something this time. Knowing our luck, though, I won't get my hopes up.

Pretty dark crazy skies! Its still very hot and very humid.

Currently in my backyard, its 93 degrees, and the Dewpoint is 67.
