Currently 77 with an average wind from the SSE of 2 mph. Feels like 77 degrees. Dew Point 72, Barometer 29.82, Humidity 92%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:45 am, Sunset 8:52 pm.

Cloudy with a 40% chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon. Damaging wind and large hail possible. High 89. SW winds 15-25 mph with higher gusts likely.

60% chance of overnight stray thunderstorms. Damaging winds and large hail with some strong storms possible. Low 72. SW winds 10-20 mph. Higher gusts possible.

For the next 24 hours or so there is a chance of severe storms. The risk is with us. Last night the south end of town got hit hard by wind. Trees down, carports crushed…it looks a bit like a war zone in spots. Here in the north end of town, nothing in my back yard. I did hear the wind kick up in the night and I heard things bumping around in the back yard, but this morning shows nothing damaged. Only measured about .25″ of rain in the gauge.

At any rate,  there is a good chance the strong winds will return later today and overnight so everyone should be aware and watchful. Once we get past this weather system the coming week look to be a winner, so just hold on.
