Happy Tuesday, everybody. These clouds need to move the hell out of here; we're thisclose to breaking out seasonal affective disorder lamps. Here's what Skilling Central is calling for today's forecast:

Fourth day of measurable precipitation and sixth consecutive day of below-normal, October-level temperatures.Initially steady rainfall continues but becomes more showery. An embedded thunderstorm cannot be ruled out in a few locations

Yup. still getting those lamps ready.

Today is the birthday of Soul Train creator Don Cornelius. The conductor of "The Hippest Trip in America" was born in 1936. Here's wishing him peace, love and soul.
