It is almost like a disaster a day. Today it is the fires in Florida. More than 15 brush fires are burning in central Florida at this time. Interstate 95 has been shut down along with many other roads. More than 160 homes have been burned.

what's your gut on my softball game tomorrow nite at 8:30? i'm going with drizzle and wet grass, but not rained out..

Matt...unless Mother nature throws us a curve ball, the rain should slide out of the area by early evening although you won't be able to say there won't be a single shower around, most areas will be dry. The showers should be hit and miss. I hope this forecast is not in error....JB

John: Is it me or has 08 been a wild yr. so far in every category. Winter tornados, spring blizards, earthquakes. Mother nature is making sure that she is still fully in charge of what happens. Can you give some insight on anything we can possible expect for the rest of the yr.?

Greg...you are right it has been an extremely eventful year. Nobody really knows how extreme the rest of the year will be. I do like the forecast that have a cool summer here. It looks like the drought will continue down south...JB
