The outer band of Tropical Storm Ophelia rolls through and deposits rain, heavy at times from the early afternoon onward into the evening. Tight temperature range also, given the rain, morning lows in the low 50’s and afternoon highs around 60 with a northeasterly breeze gusting to 25 mph.
It’s a “C” day!
