Seriously, this is not what late summer should be about. Clouds, rain, and cool, clammy temps below 75? Dubya. Tee. Eff. Last night's rain has left things damp and occasional rain showers today might keep it that way. Highs will nudge right up to around 70. The dreary conditions continue into evening when lows fall into the lower 60s. We might as well have a laugh and wish Paul Reubens, aka Pee Wee Herman, a happy birthday. Now go rescue those snakes.
