In the city where I grew up, there was a television meteorologist who used to describe weather like this as "Four 'D' Weather." The four D's were: dark, damp, dank, and dreary. That pretty much describes this week. It'll be a bit warmer than yesterday, with highs near 50, but the chance of showers remains through Friday night when it'll turn to a slight chance of snow. Lows tonight will be in the low-to-mid 40s. And still damp. Skilling Says: next week is gonna be the coldest yet.
