May 3 Morning Rain Then Some Strong Afternoon Storms Kick Off Wet Week

Monday May 3 2021

The timing of the weather worked out pretty well. After a nice weekend, the needed rain (it’s been pretty dry) is moving in this morning. It will be hard to broad brush this as it will be broken up today.

This morning we get a band of rain, then a break with thunderstorms this afternoon with pocket that may be very strong to severe. The start of the week will be warm and humid, then turning much cooler. More rain likely tomorrow, and a coastal storm on Friday.

Sunshine State Of Mind

I am done with the cold and snow (for the season). I am embracing my wife’s mantra of Sunshine State of Mind.

This was designed by Shannon Berk and we will be wearing it through spring and to the beach.

Double Benefit: Proceeds will be split between our nonprofit Just In Power Kids and the development of my new weather website. That has been scheduled to be ready to launch in May.
