Hi All,
Cautionary note on weather forecasts. The validity of a forecast is
dependent on distance from the fronts being examined and the location
in question. A good rule of thumb is to not start planning on a
forecast (especially the precip part of a forecast) until it gets to
the 3 day. 7 day forecasts have abysmal records at being correct.
Its Gulf and thus it will likely rain sometime but beyond that its
speculation for now...we should know better at the end of the week :-)
