Let's start off the last week of the month with a little shot of tranquility, shall we? The National Weather Service is forecasting up to 1.5 inches of rain coming before the rain comes to an end sometime Wednesday. Today kicks the storms off in earnest with thunderstorms this afternoon and into the evening. Heavy rain overnight with a projected high today of 57. Hope you all got your fill of lamb, ham, or whatever you had for Easter. That's your warm layer for today.
