Gary, who is, well, he is prepared for the rain. Good morning, jesse reporter bill, good morning to you. Here in olney, where the rain, as you said, tapering off, but theres still a lot of moisture on the area roadways, a lot of pooling, particularly on the expressways, tollways, et cetera. So, if youre out driving around, want to bear that in mind. Try and stay towards the middle and watch out for spray coming off of cars next to you and coming in the opposite direction when they hit maybe a puddle or something.
