PM Update: Here comes some fantastic weather
It’s been a pretty decent day out there, with temperatures reaching highs in the 80s most spots. Perhaps a bit cooler than I expected in the morning forecast, thanks in part to a bit extra cloudiness and a slower shift in winds to the west. But, that wind shift is here, and humidity levels are already dropping. By tomorrow, that taste of summer will be a memory for a while.

Is tornado voyeurism killing people?
