The Weather

Meet the new month, same as the old month. More hot. More humid. Chance of some thunderstorms. According to weather.com, if we get thunderstorms, they’ll probably come before noon. After that, it’s sunny and hot, and the humidity should fall as the potential for storms leaves town. Expect a high near 92.
