It appears we finally are hitting the "cooler by the lake" stage of the year. The forecasts from Skilling Central and Accuweather call for today's weather to be markedly milder along the lakeshore, aided by some winds blowing in from the northeast. Skilling has the forecast high peaking in the low 70s again while Accuweather is being more pragmatic and calling for highs in the mid-60s. But there is plenty of sunshine to be had as we begin a long Memorial Day weekend. We want to get out of here and enjoy it as badly as you. So let's get to work, get out of here and prep the grill.
