The next few hours
Dry for the moment, with rain moving in this morning
It is 38° with a dew point of 35°, which is dry for this time of year. The sky is overcast. The air is close to calm.
The wind backs into the north-northwest around 4 AM, which is the turn that usually comes ahead of the change rather than after it. The first rain arrives between 6 AM and 7 AM, with the best chance of it around noon. That leaves a usable window outdoors until about 6 AM, and it closes quickly after that.
Taller, warmer bars mean heavier rain. Dotted means no reading for that hour.
