Today, we put another Summer in the books and move on to fall. At 4:18 p.m. this afternoon, Fall begins. Though, to be honest, it probably won't feel a whole heck of a lot like it. In fact, for most of the week, you won't notice a difference. There's a chance of rain - odds get better as the day goes on - and highs will eventually reach the mid 70s under cloudy skies. It's also kind of humid, and that just plays havoc with our hair. Tonight, skies remain cloudy, rain remains possible, and lows fall to the mid 60s. The rest of the week is looking pretty similar - warm, humid, possibly damp - but the long range forecast shows cooler and wetter weather is on the way.
