Stormy For The Next Few Days

This morning's visual:Yesterday was a mix of sun and cloud with a little drizzle.It was actually quite warm in the latter part of the afternoon.We are pretty much overcast here this morning and the system that went through Boston is on it's way here.They had lots of intense lightning,hail,wind but a lot of the steam will be out of it when it gets here.There is the possibility of some lightning but nothing much to worry about.So far,there has been no precip here and,going by the current radar,most of the rain will be north of here.
This slow moving system is expected to influence our weather for the next two to three days before moving out of the area.
