May Storms!

After a gorgeous day yesterday I knew there was some stormy weather in sight.  As the day progressed it went from humid to cool which meant that the front was coming through.  Early this morning it hit with full force complete with thunder and lightning as well as plenty of rain.  It's good to see the trees and grass greening up!! Today's weather is 68 F with 78% humidity which explains the stormy weather we have seen all day.  currently there are some cumulonimbus / stratus clouds covering the sky.  The wind is from the NNE at about 6 mph so we have a slower moving storm system on our hands.

This surface map shows that we have our Low pressure stationary front taking its sweet time moving through the area.  We can expect this rainy weather to stick around for awhile!
