Its currently about 11 am and its another very nice day.  The current temperature is 62 degrees and there aren't any clouds with a slight breeze coming from the northwest.  The relative humidity is 34% and the dew point is 31 degrees so the air isn't very saturated.  Barometric pressure dropped some and is now at 1029.8 and steady.  The jet stream looks like it's back to a zonal flow so much of the country is getting nice weather.  The current surface map has a lot going on with it, most notably the large occluded front that just went over us, which is why we could have got rain yesterday but it wasn't strong enough, and the next low pressure occluded front coming in.  This is like the last one, a low pressure cold front with some rain attached to it, however the storm is again dying off.  Other than that, there are a lot of low and high pressure systems around and some drylines associated with them.  My prediction for tomorrow, is a warm but cloudy day with a chance of rain and for winds to shift to the west/southwest.
