during the day but i think most of this is going to hold off until nighttime and future tracker6 is certainly buying into that idea. this is 6 o'clock at night. you can see how the clouds have filtered in tomorrow and as we head into the evening it will be cloudy. then later after about eight, 9, 10 o'clock you'll start to see a few showers around. might even see a thunderstorm pop up in a
