Thursday Afternoon Rain: Light, Moderate, Heavy--a Little of All Intensities

2:40 p.m. Thursday after the "on-going" rain :-)

Temperature-wise, Thursday is a tremendous relief to the 90-degrees of Wednesday; the air, however, is muggy. It needs to rain a lot longer to cool the well-heated earth down. After all, it's been an intense summer with 90 being quite common. After so much drought, it's actually fun watching the rain water playfully find it's way down and around  the newly paved roadway, taking with it, some stone and some soil.

The forecasted high is 83 but the temp is currently in the mid 70s. There is an 80% chance of continued precipitation and storms for the rest of today and overnight.

Update: Half hour later, rain stopped, sun shining.
