you get a 10th of an inch of rain out of this, you're pretty lucky. these models are pretty bullish and me not to end up being that much rain. but if it does, of course, adding to some pretty impressive totals already, in fact, some places we don't need another drop and we're going to be above normal for the remainder of the season. alright, temperatures outside for tomorrow. 50's and 60's
