Quiet Monday, rainy & breezy mid-week
After a pretty quiet weekend, we're still pretty quiet. It'll just be mostly cloudy today with temps topping out a little above normal, around 50 or just above. By the way, our local groundhog-like rodent (mountain beaver, marmot, whatever) did NOT see its shadow on Saturday. The bad news is that I lost my $5 bet with Tim Joyce. The good news is that SPRING is around the corner! Rain returns tomorrow and lasts through Thursday. It'll get breezy-to-windy as well, especially on Wednesday. And especially on the coast and the north interior where tomorrow and Wednesday will be pretty windy. The mountains will see a healthy dumping of snow. Friday through the coming weekend it looks dry, but chilly with highs in the mid-to-upper 40s.
