The severe thunderstorms hit later than predicted Tuesday but they left a lot of sogginess in their wake, as well as a small craft advisory and beach hazards statement until 10 a.m. Thursday. The lake is angry today, friends.

As for the rest of today's forecast, expect the highs to reach the upper 70s we've enjoyed for much of July, along with decreasing humidity by afternoon. It's going to be breezy which is a good thing for those of you biking as you'll find yourselves riding into the wind sometime today. Things will be mostly clear this evening and tonight. Thursday will see more of the same before the rains return Friday and into the weekend.
