.DISCUSSION...Clouds hang around today with possible virga later
this afternoon. Probabilities for rainfall ramp up by daybreak
through the morning hours Friday, then becomes more showery
thereafter. The statistical range for rainfall totals through
noon Friday are from 0.04" up to 0.16". From Noon to 6 pm Friday,
the range is from 0" to 0.07". I thinking the rainfall amounts
will be more in the middle of that range as there will be a
northeast breeze that could keep things a little bit drier. The
rain probability rises Friday night into Saturday morning.
