Today's Weather

Today's weather is actually not so nice. During the night the clouds moved in and covered the moon.  These clouds are heavy with moisture and at 32 degrees Fahrenheit it is raining and not snowing.

I live about three miles from work and it took 20 minutes to get here this morning.  Crazy warm day.

Drive carefully and only leave the house if you must!
