Hello and welcome in. Happy Wednesday. Happy July 3rd. Happy Independence Day, Eve. Thank you for bearing with me on what is an earlier time. I'm on the road right after this. So as soon as I click and stream, I'm in the car. I'm out of here. But I did not want to miss this. So moving it up,

the chance of precipitation rises from about 33%. And then you're going to get probably 50%

the rest of the evening and they're expecting a little bit less than a quarter inch of rain.

That's notable, right? That's an amount of rain that is notable. Along with that is an increase in wind, but an increase only from about four miles an hour to seven or eight miles an hour.

The real trouble looks to be Friday, which will be dry, according to this forecast, but much windier.

And much windier as the day goes on peaking with those 17 or 18 mile an hour winds in the afternoon.

I will say a lot can change, okay?

Whether the rain comes or doesn't come,

whether it comes earlier,

whether it causes a stoppage,

whether there's,

all of this stuff.

But if everyone plays to their tea times,
