Showers + Humidity = Tropics

Mornin'!  It's 74° and tropical in WW this morning.  It's raining lightly.  The leaves are moving ever so slightly from the light showers; but no breezes to write about.  Crickets are loud and clear.  There's a bit of lightning coming from the direction of the sea along with a low rumble of thunder.  It's been raining since I watered everything last night.   There's a 40% chance of rain showers and/or thunderstorms mainly before noon today.  However...there's also a chance of that hazy sun peeking out and along with the humidty...keeping us in the tropics this afternoon.  Temps will rise into the mid-80's.  Breezes are expected later from the E-SE at 5-10mph.  Patchy fog tonight and the same for the start of  Friday.  Weekend's looking 50-50 with chances of thunderstorms here and there.  I need to mention the Rip Currents again (check yesterday's link on my blog) as the ocean was closed down to swimmers yesterday due to the intensity.  Hurricane Leslie is making her presence known (way off shore) and creating havoc with our ocean all along the east coast so take heed.  Pay attention to beach markers.   More than half the lifeguards are back at school now too...you may want to keep that in mind.
